Anyone want to collaborate on a shorting system?
This is a different type of question, hope its not outside the rules, Wayne. I am currently working on a short to intermediate term system for shorting stocks, and have been having a lot of success recently. Some of that may be due to the overall market going lower, but I think it's more because I have been honing my system for quite awhile. If anyone would like to collaborate on a low risk/high reward shorting system (hey, don't laugh, that is entirely possible), please contact me at fuss1@aol.com . I wish to keep it a stock shorting system, not for buying short ETF's or using options.

Ethan if you have a $1million to spare you can look at Forex trading which is giving Fantastic returns.
I will be happy to do the introduction as I am direct to both the chairman and head trader.

I think a system of shorting could be developed perhaps based on sector weakness and then how some of the sectors overlap into other areas. I do not think that you should restrict the process to only shorting stocks since that is but one method and if it is truly a short side system it should be able to be flexible enough to use a variety of shorting plays or methods.

Some investors don’t like to short stocks and play forex trading. Because they say it is a type of speculation and few winners and more losers. I still have not tried in these areas. But I always like to practice something new. Once I see it is not for me I will go for my next investment type. Especially new investors have to be very careful when they start to play forex trade and shorting stock. Sometimes back I met a guy who was expert in forex trading. He lost his entire holding and I got more interested in learning forex trading. That is one area I am hoping to do in addition to shorting. There is a saying it is better to do what you know best. When I am feel best in above areas I like to play because I want to safeguard my hard earning savings.
