Although before an event is taking place you can rarely be too strict with your resources, i would recommend to stay under the soft cap, unless you are stockpiling. This will mean that you have natural resource gain alongside the income you get from expeditions. In your case of HQ lvl 9 it would mean a soft cap at (9+3)*250= 3000.

So i would say you are doing fine.
