Basket of Shorts

The markets appear to be rolling over from this morning's rally attempt. I am looking at adding a little short exposure here, just for a trade. Here is the basket of stocks I am looking at:
  • REDF
  • MYOG
  • CELL
  • NDAQ
  • FTEK
  • HOLX
  • LCRD
  • USAP
  • ESCL
  • ICTG
  • CHAP
  • ATHR
  • NTRI
  • FFIV
  • DRI


If you have any comments or opinions on any of these, feel free to share.

I won't short NTRI, because the short interest is already way too high (>30%). That makes for a crowded short.

That said, I still think it could sell off after it reports. Let's call it a gentleman's bet...

I like your CHAP short idea.

Looks like the stock is way overbought, and could fall about 5 points in the next few days.

How much weight do you put in charts when looking at stocks?

Grant,
I put weight in both technicals and fundamentals, as well as sentiment. I use fundamentals to decide which stocks to own, and technicals to help me discern when to buy and sell my stocks.
