Paul,

>can you, just for the fun of it, come up with a shorting
> rule: Do you see it from the IOM chart?

No, I don't. Increased volume? But that just comes
from the splits. Decreased volume at the very top?
Hmm, I need a better chart than Yahoo's...

Actually with 20/20 hindsight, the time to short
IOM and PRST was their last split. Splits are
great for high flyers, but bad for broken high flyers.

Good luck

Jurgis - if I could do TA, I'd be rich ;-)

Paul: The most obvious common chart characteristic I see [PRST, IOM, AMZN] is an extended parabolic rise..this was a contributing factor to my short, but I agree that I have no clue on projecting the ultimate top.

I find it ironic that short-selling is now the primary point of discussion on the "Value Investing" thread.

Best wishes,

"...woulda told AMZN shorters that it's too soon to short. Do you see it from the PRST chart? I see it would have worked there too.
Rudd hasn't a clue."

I guess Rudd has more than a clue.
