I get what you're saying, but it totally does matter.  We are a very small and stupid minority playing derivatives on ETFs to *make* money...the people with actual knowledge and money use ETF derivatives to *keep* money by lowering their risk. 
  
  
 Its not about predicting a drop, its about protecting in case of a drop.

I agree. I guess if they are protecting for a drop, I will throw a grand into the same trade to protect as well. But this trade is interesting, bearish on financials is protecting for fed cut, I believe.
