How to find high probability shorts







When a stock that has been rallying for few months to years has a high volume gap breakdown with volume on breakdown day above 9 million (you can even reduce this to 5 million if you want more candidates) , it often signals end of wrong running trend.

Stocks like these become good short candidates after a brief bounce. This is a high probability setup.

In a year depending on market conditions 25 to 200 such setups show up. They offer 20% to 90% profit potential moves once they breakdown. This setup works best on stocks that were up 300% plus in 2 years or less before the high volume breakdown.

It is very easy to setup scan to do this in most software. I scan for these in Telechart and create a watchlist.
