Question about selling short:

From what I understand, you can only sell short on an uptick, but is it
possible to put in a short sell order, that you hope gets done if the stock
has a single uptick on it's way down?

Thanks

Ian, what did you see in CSTR as a short sale, technically speaking; don't
see a H&S top, or 2-3 down shoulders, perhaps, a double top? Did you sell
short during the pre-market or regular hours. Nice trade. dave
