Jenna: <You can't know exactly when to go short or long every time>. Very true. Whenever I buy a stock I EXPECT it will go lower before I (perhaps) get my trade. Same when I go short. Occasionally you can "nail" the entry pretty close to the bottom...or top in the case of a short. Placing a stop to limit a loss in case the trade goes wrong is a bit of an "art." Occasionally you can glean where most traders will place stops...and where hedge-funds or others looking to acquire your stock in size will go "gunning" for these stops...and often get 'em. In these situations I'll risk a bit more and place my stop lower, to avoid this annoying ploy. Oh...Red Sox 11-4 winners over Baltimore last night...Yankees 1-0 losers to Devil Rays. The race tightens up a bit. (Lee)
