dennis -- I never go short and don't recommend it to others. I buy puts if so inclined and try to trade them fast enough to make money -- which is always easier said than done. Buying puts is highly risky, but I feel if done with some luck, speed and discipline you can at least make money to offset mistakes -- again, not for the faint of heart. But I really wonder about the trend on AMZN? When it hit 200 it really felt like it broke the fever. And Friday wasn't much to cheer about -- up a couple of points with options expiring into a rally. Is it possible that the charts here are not going to be the best guide?
