Jan,

Your prev post regarding the influence of daytraders and short covering was quite accurate.

Now that I am starting with clean slate in amzn, I will work with very small qty to test my ideas without coming under a lot of pressure. It will also be more fun, I hope.

Until Friday, I was always trying to maintain a large short position because I was convinced that once it drops for a few days, it will accelerate down like a stone. So I was afraid I would miss the big move down if I was not short overnight. Even though it worked on the whole (in the last few weeks), the concept was proved wrong. I am relieved that we may get higher levels to short at.

Good trading to you.
