Getting Around To Shorting VMWare

 | Jun 13, 2013 02:52AM ET

Since then I have been looking for a reason and entry to be short. With the sideways motion for the last two weeks, it has done just that. The chart below shows that it has been building a descending triangle over support at 70 since February. The target on the break below takes it to 40. Both the bearish Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the Moving Average Convergence Divergence indicator (MACD) support more downside. The accumulation/distribution is rolling lower. Distribution confirming the rounding top was seen back on June 4. The short interest is less than 3%, so the risk of a squeeze is small. A close below 70 on the weekly chart seals the deal on the short trade.
