I was short until this morning. Good time to pocket profits, just as longs do after explosive bursts up. There is good chance of a modest technical bounce then another drop off. Plenty of time to reinstate a short, and I agree there with some other posters that there is plenty of downside room, at least to 36. BTW, you don't have to hit the ask to short. Your order has to go thru on an uptick, that's it.

moose, when you short you sell at the bid and then buy back at the ask.
