I think stocks making new lows would be better shorts than ones making new highs.

I went through your list and weeded out the BB stocks, takeovers and low volume stocks. Most of the rest are Internet momentum stocks - VRSN, NSOL, BRCM (or non-Internet like NEON) - which are treacherous. SONE looks best with that chart gap down to 24 and almost 10 million in the float. But it was recently upgraded and is now a software company instead of an Internet bank. Good for a hit and run on a down day if you are nimble. UNFY might actually be good for a long position once it closes the gap to 7: Message 6759148. Where did you get this list?

Take a look at JPM after its profit warning - could head back to the 90's on a down day. KOPN is nearing 20 again where it always seems to fail. And MSTR is said to be coming out of a lockup today. I don't follow it that closely.
