If there any method to my madness in choosing stocks to short at this point? I don't know but the plan is that in addition to QQQQ I want to short high beta stocks that are showing technical weakness relative to the index. AAPL and SBUX have not recovered above their all time highs made a few months back and appear to be in B or C waves of a decline from those highs. GOOG and HANS would be examples where the relative weakness is more recent. HHH shows a similar pattern to AAPL but has been stronger in the last few days. It's a purely technical driven approach. GOOG and HANS are currently profitable positions and the others not.
