Yes of course, but I'm suggesting having some skin in the game at the midpoint, and adding if an event that looks like it's long over due occurs. It all depends on your objective. If you you are looking to make bigger money and risk losing more, go all in at midpoint, if the market is more of a hobby and or safety and preservation is more important to you, I would divide it up. I'm just saying there will be some unhappy campers if you went all in and it dropped 30%

Just want to add that nailing a long play like Xiv, is 8 times easier than riding an inverse ETF like Tvix long.
It can be done though.
I'm a firm believer that Xiv will go over 100, so if you have patience to ride out a downturn or are willing to add to it, then be aggressive.

I give you and Kevin a great deal of credit for your reads today. You guys have to admit that those were binary calls that couldn't possibly have been generated by a filter or signal, unless one of you geniuses has invented a filter to consider politics in real time.
In the muddle this afternoon, I started pricing out protection in case the vote happened and lost after the close, as this weekend would have been a quagmire. I certainly didn't have the guts to double down on XIV or short TVIX during that hour or so.
Sometimes just sitting tight is OK too.
