Jenna - I think it's great you've taken the plunge into shorting...I've often said (and deeply felt) I have no right to be "in the market" without having the know-how to go long and short. As it stands now, if the markets are down, I simply hold and don't trade at all...I consider this a huge missed opportunity...but like everything else to do with trading, I think I could use a little hand-holding and I'm not sure where to start. But I think it's great you've had some success with shorting...I suppose it's something every trader evolves into eventually. BTW, mini tornado (ok, just high wind and rain) put a damper on tennis tonight...playing 9-11 tomorrow am so will miss YHOO-induced rally... like you, my tennis friends are getting bored with my "market" synopsis and I long for the ideal, ie. tennis and apres-stock talk!!! I know exactly how you feel....
