Short-Term Hedge

Hi all,

I wrote a profitable futures trading strategy that has made me decent returns trading live. I’m just curious whether it would be feasible to use options as a hedge against individual trades to improve RR; I admittedly don’t know all that much about options but am interested.

The algorithm trades on the NQ. It scalps 15 points and risks 18. Trades last from seconds to minutes. Thoughts?

Thanks! 🙂
