CORV +25% and MANH +19% called long, not short, its up too much to hold but good holds might be RFMD, KLAC, All from watch list (RFMD yesterdays) as beaten down stocks. We are privy to good money to be made on the long side. There just hasn't been that many opportunities lately.

Jenna, makes sense. I do three separate types of trades. Scalping trades in which I try to pick temporary bottoms for a bounce (more for fun than anything else). I started with $16K and is currently $70K+, so I am only risking fun money. I also do some swing or intermediate trades in this account and others accounts and of course have some mutual funds in some accounts which I have been picking up very recently. Obviously, the swings trades are the ELNT's at 45 or the AMCC at 48-50, etc. or occassional puts. In other words, the better quality stocks that I feel are due for a bounce. I may also preserve profits and sell them on temporary market strength or sell them for small losses.... or even hold then for a couple months. The mutual funds are 401K money and protect me in case of a major rally which really could occur almost any time now, although it is likely a ways off.
