I'm looking for stocks that seem to be stalling, hitting resistance levels while the market continues higher.

Was your most recent short of WMT at 55 consistent with this strategy? WMT resistence seems to be at 59. It looks like it is at support right now. bigcharts.marketwatch.com

AMAT resistance at 17 looks much weaker to me. Pretty soon, people will be concentrating on the efficiencies generated by the layoffs and bidding it higher IMO. It may be "overvalued", but overvaluation is relative and typically increases as we pass through the winter season.

I could be wrong but I still think this is the time to be hunting for January effect turnaround plays on the long side, like a JDSU, rather than trying to short quality companies like WMT or AMAT, except for a very quick scalp, ala AD. The time to hunt for shorts is in March when investors have a dose of spring fever.

Just my opinion. I've been wrong before...
