Closing QQQ Aug $74 Puts at a loss

I'm going to take the loss here rather, then when the time is right, enter a new QQQ put position and make it back and more I'm quite sure, but considering the time left (8/17), even if we get a 1 day bounce and a sharp sell-off the next day, I'd still be better off closing it here and entering a new position at higher prices in the day/s ahead.

It just makes sense.
