Be very careful about trying to short stocks that are on everybody's
buy list. How many times have you heard someone say, "If Intel or
Microsoft go down, I'm going to buy some." You go short at the
exact time when the stock is considered by many to be a good buy.
Caught in a short-term rally, you have to cover your short position,
which only adds to the rally. For the most part, you should avoid
shorting stocks like this unless you have an excellent understanding
of the specific stock's support and resistance areas as well as its
normal volatility.
If you are shorting using ECNs (Electronic Communications
Networks), you will still need to know the stock's support and resistance
levels. As with all buy and sell decisions, you will use technical
indicators and technical analysis. Because electronic traders
usually sell a stock short for only a few minutes or hours, fundamental
factors will only help you identify a stock that should begin
or stay in a bearish trend.
