Trigger for protective calls would be if you plan on being in a longer term bearish trade. AKA shorting shares or a put with Dec expiration or longer. IF/when a bearish roll over does occur, I believe it would be only 1 week or so... From here R:R is solid. WE will see what happens. Stop is above the 50 EMA on the daily and the 10/20 ema on the weekly.
