Mike,

Your right about SUNW being a solid company. For a short it depends on your objective. I frequently want to make a point or so, depending on how many shares I'm trading. I often short based on overbought conditions with RSI and/or stochastics above 80 or so. But not until volume falls off; a stock that makes new highs on weaker volume is a decent candidate. SUNW still has too much volume.

Have a good Thanksgiving.

Dave
