Let's talk parabolic shorts because they are starting to pop up on this overextended market.  The parabolic short is an excellent play for reward/risk because the downward moves can be so great! 

The ideal setup:

1) Straight upward move = Parabolic = 'U'

2) Outside the bollinger bands - A must have!!!

3) Gap up in the morning

4) Weakness intraday - play when it crosses over yesterdays close - green to red

These things can drop 10-20% over 3 days!!!!!!!

Thanks Guys! Agreed Matt, I was seeing these pop up all over my scans recently. These are high reward low risk plays that you can swing.
