Katherine,
When you speak of a tail down close, does that mean that it still closes
above the pivot point, or would you look for a stock to have a failed
breakout with the type of action that you described?
Thanks
Mike

Hi Mike,
Definitely not, unless you're a pure gambler. I'd look for signs of failure
before shorting *anything*.
For example, at the time of a breakout, one of the signs of failure would
be
a high volume surge up, a wide range day, and a close at the bottom of the
range (tail down). That would be a sign to get out of a breakout, but not
necessarily a sign to short. After the stock behaves like this, it will
often rise on puny volume for a few days then start to fall. Now *that's* a
place to short, after the failure is clear, the retest of a price range
(resistance) fails, and the stock moves downward with more clarity.

Do does this possibly represent a nice shorting opportunity?

Hi Dave,
A high volume surge first thing in the morning is not particularly unusual.
However, the first hour of trade is generally considered to be primarily
retail rather than institutional in composition. I'm always wary of a big
move like that on the same day that the stock is featured in the IBD, as
there are so many eyes on it. That doesn't mean that today's breakout isn't
for real, but this is the kind of breakout I like to stay away from. Any
sort of weakness in the stock and all the out-of-the-box CANSLIMers will be
running for the hills in a flash.

Hi,
I also bought SHFL this morning @ $31.14 (9:44am.) What struck me funny
was the volume. Ameritrade streamer already had daily volume @ 300K which
is
its average daily volume. I know WON emphasizes large volume breakouts, but
when a stock hits ADV within minutes of the open, what does this indicate?
an institution making a large purchase? I am new to streamer, so I never
happened to see this degree of activity so quickly.
Thanks,
Dave
