>> And I think you'd be right, but it is usually suicide to short a breakout. But last time, you would have made a fortune Last time, with yahoo we waited 2 days after e, when yhoo clearly could not hold new highs. My first short was around 210. But Jan, being a very brave person, shorted on e-day at 226.

but it is usually suicide to short a breakout. But last time, you would have made a fortune Eugene, I will short new highs(breakouts) with Amzn/Yhoo/Aol. Why, a. the new and improved float in the big 3, B, Sep/Oct will be down time again for the nets. The problem is that those reasons are becoming apparent so Amzn/Aol's new highs for this Q is out of the question(IMO). There is something about Yhoo, coz it's the first to test.
