Thanks all for comments. Was trying to use a concept that is used with Option trading. It is sometimes called/referred to as hedging. This is accomplished when a call and a put is bought above and below the present stock price. This will limit the exposure to profit and loss. At the same time it usually will assure a small profit. With a small profit already in the bank, made the decision to bet the other side of the sunday night baseball game.
The original play was taking Atl and the over. Took the other of both bets. Again thanks for all the comments.
