I am try trying again with a short of Whirlpool (WHR) - I was stopped out on that break over the 200 day but thus far it looks like a head fake. The computers took the price right over that key level to shake out all the stops and then took the stock back down. I am shorting a 2.4% exposure near mid $81s. Now that the game is obvious, a stop loss can be placed over the intraday highs of the past 2 days (around $83.70), rather than just above the 200 day moving average. Frankly if my "berth" for the stop loss had been just a tad wider the last time around, I would have been ok in retrospect.
