CCRT - CompuCredit Corporation provides credit and related financial services and products to consumer credit market, as well as to unbanked consumers.. and we will short it.

Technically CCRT has broken through a serious support line giving us a great short!  We are looking for a serious plunge and not risking more that 8% topside.  With 31% of the float short: (http://www.shortsqueeze.com/index.php?symbol=ilmn&submit=Enter)
it seems many feel the same way, yet not enough to make us fear a short squeeze.
Also encouraging is the over $14million worth of CCRT sold by the COO in February: (http://www.form4oracle.com/company?cik=0001068199&ticker=ccrt)

--------------------------------
Charts:
------------------------------

1. Daily - The first chart shows-off the serious break down.  The rounded nature of the top is also very bearish.  Notice the empty space below this stock could plunge into.  30 is a possible target but we will decide that as the stock moves along.



--------------------------------

2. Daily Zoom - The second chart displays our stop above the local high of 38.85 and the blue resistance.  Notice the negative convergence of the indicators.



-------------------------------

3. 5-minute Entry - We are going to try to let CCRT move up higher into our target shorting zone(36.40-37.00) tomorrow before 12pm.  After 12, if we do not have our position yet, we will short as low as 35.85, if the stock gives us a chance.  This means that there is a possibility that the stock will not be able to be shorted if it moves away too far down.  This is to make sure the risk/reward remains favorable.



--------------------


We will sell short CCRT @ 36.40 - 37.00 before 12pm or
We will sell short CCRT as low as 35.85 after 12pm and
after execution will place a buy stop @ 38.85.

Do you mean to buy today, March 22?

This is a play to sell short, not to buy. G expects the price to drop significantly because the chart is broken basically. Once again, we want to sell short.

Ultra, I think Maestro is confirming that the pick is today and not tomorrow (word highlighted red in his post), I am sure he/she knows it is a short.

Yes Maestro the pick is posted for selling short today 22nd Mar.

Yes, got that wrong, I did mean sell short. Am watching it now, in fact, to pounce when the target figure gets reached.

Excuse my ignorance, I've never played the short side before.
Can you accomplish this plan by buying "Puts" on the stock?

akclide

You can as long as you are willing to loose all your initial investment and are willing to pay the time value.The optiond for this equity does not seem to have much volitility.

update CCRT:

We got an initial move up in the 1st 5min of the day.  This was repelled one cent below our trigger zone.  Now the pattern has tightened up.. perhaps it will be able to pop up into the zone from this consolidation.  ;)

G, I see the price is beginning to fall nicely. Do you already have a target in mind for a limit buy to cover, or will you work on that after the close?
