Tim Can you get and respond to PMs? If so, I have a couple of questions that I'd rather ask that way. If not, I'll post the questions here. Phil

Good luck Tim. I don't short stocks, I buy the puts. In a bull market, shorting is risky and I've seen some of Anthony's followers get their clocks cleaned because they short his picks and they did not have the cash to cover the margin calls when the picks go against them. We're still in a bull market. Picking stocks that go up is easier than picking those that will go down, at least it is for me. Try Time Warner Telecom (TWTC) and TYCO (TYC) for short term gainers. If you don't want to buy the stocks, buy some near-money calls for March..... I think both are a cinch for a double by March with the Calls..... ask Kathyh, she's made a killing trading options on TWTC and she's on her third round of being in and out of the calls on TWTC, and that's just one of several that will go up without a doubt. Good luck.
