“…great card players aren’t trying to prove anything. They’re just trying to take each other’s money.” -Don “The Matador” Everest, Tilt (ESPN Series from 2005).

Stocks like BIDU have broken daily and even weekly charts (more on this later; Hat Tip to my friend Russel of “Brooklyn Waters Research”), and yet they can easily bounce a bit here after printing hammers yesterday. With today’s mean-reverting action, I would think the bears are apt to back off the accelerator into next week. That said, we are not looking at a multitude of marquee long setups here. The damage inflicted on many charts forces me to respect the odds and probabilities, which tells me to remain patient on the long side. Regarding the short side, a few days of light volume bouncing followed by the beginnings of a roll over in a stock like BIDU would be excellent conditions to initiate shorts.
