David I am considering shorting QQQ. I've never shorted before and am interested in comments Not enough information here. As a full hedge, a partial hedge against long holdings? Or as an outright short with speculative gain and not hedging as a primary motivation?

David, re: "I am considering shorting QQQ. I've never shorted before and am interested in comments. I reckon anything above 185 is reasonable. Comments?" My order is in for 191, FWIW. It would be an outright short, but only a very small percent of my portfolio. A higher qqq would get me to consider increasing the position.

I've seen better shorts. Looks like it's still on an uptrend to me, BWDIK?
