<the bottom of the trading channel be a good place to cover the short>

Yes, and that's what I've done usually. I will regret not covering at 8$, if we re-establish support there. However, since I am expecting a series of lowered guidance this earnings season from tech companies, I've decided to wait a bit before covering my shorts, to see if support lines fail. The risk: KLIC goes back up to 9$. The potential reward: If support at 8$ fails, we could step down to 7$ or even the mid-2010 lows at $5.27. That's a favorable risk/reward balance, IMO.
