RE: US Stocks - Watchlist and Discussion (Premium)
That's a sensible approach. I'm short 250 at 43.49 with orders to short 450 more at 43.99 as personally I feel the rally is a spike that will fizzle by the end of today.

As before the method would suggest waiting for it to stabilize at the breakdown area / resistance zone and starting to show weakness again. So one method I've been experimenting with is dropping down the time frame to a 2 hour chart and performing a Stage analysis on it in the same way you would with a weekly chart. So for example if you look at the 2 hour chart of CTRX attached, it's gaped up into 2hr Stage 2, straight from it's 2hr Stage 4 on around 3 times the average volume. So personally, I'd be looking for it to form a consolidation over a number of days and then breaking back below that at least, as is showing some short term strength currently.
