5 Great Short Setups
Monday Game Plan and Free Trade Report
Here is the strategy I laid out for subscribers to start the week:http://docs.google.com/View?id=d5z8q8w_1205gxt3rxp3 The market is in a very bullish made right now. As we can see on the SPY chart, RSI confirms the recent breakout over resistance, as it makes new highs along with the index. The volume patterns shows there's some real velocity...

Today’s Trade: SDS
I am shorting SPY using inverse ETF SDS. SPY has reached resistance and is very overbought. This is a recipe for a pullback, as it is very hard to make meaningful advances after a big run up and extreme overbought conditions. The trade is low risk and offers a decent edge.
The Short Apple Setup
AAPL is showing a negative divergence and is extremely extended at new highs. I am short with a tight stop.

RIMM Showing Bear Flag and Distribution
RIMM is at the top of my focus list for shorts. Notice the bear flag formation and bear flag that has formed under the 50 day moving average. The volume pattern is also showing distribution, with heavy volume on the recent drop.
Today’s Trades: FCX and MON
I made two speculative trades today, short FCX and long MON. MON is oversold, but still a few points from support. The higher probability setup is to enter long at $70, which I will do if I get stopped out of this trade. FCX shows a bearish pattern, but has bounced over the 50 day... Continue Reading →
