I'll repeat, if you got to short, short them after they break, for instance EXPE should not be shorted unless $72 is taken out, then a solid ride to $65 or so, and possibly lower could ensue.

EXPE is a short killer.. definately not a stock to short, and I tell that to myself over and over and yet I continue to give the broker commissions and myself a write off each time I decide to take a crack at it. In the last 3 months I shorted EXPE about 5 times.. Each time the story is exactly the same,.. It drops like a rock, and by end of day they move it 2-3 points on several hundred shares.. Spreads sometimes of .50

Very difficult to put a physical stop in as well.. dangerous not to have one.. you cant win..
