Best ways to play the stock sell-off

It was a rough week on Wall Street, as the S&P 500 and put in their worst weekly performance since June 2012. In light of the downturn in stocks, CNBC's "Fast Money" traders offered their best ways to play the sell-off, and gave guidance on how to position in the coming days.

Steve Grasso of Stuart Frankel pointed out a key level to watch in the S&P 500 for an indication of where the market could be headed.

"You have to look at the 100-day moving average," he said, which sits at 1,828. "If this gets lengthier than five days below 1,828, then the market is in trouble."

Grasso also offered a name he would buy on the dips. "With more access to cars, Pandora's going to be in more and more rides going forward. I think this is a good place to buy it," he said.

Tim Seymour of Triogem Asset Management took a glass-half-full view of the sell-off, saying that the market's volatility is creating a great environment to be a stock picker.

"I think the second-quarter thaw for the economy is going to be much stronger than people expect … the industrial side of the economy, that's where you want to trade this thing," he said.

Jon Najarian of Optionmonster.com said that the market weakness presents a great entry point for online travel company Tripadvisor, which fell 8 percent in just the past week. "Right now, with it down as much as it is, I would be a buyer of TRIP," he said.
