A rare appearance on this thread - I would short SPHS at the end of the day if I could find any shares to borrow. IB has none as far as I can tell.
So as a paper trade I will short SPHS at the close today and buy to close at the end of the day tomorrow just to see what happens.

Also paper shorting S and AMD at the close (just testing a filter).

Well, this filter would not have had me in SPHS until the close, so I am looking for a further pullback into the close tomorrow.

That actually was the original genesis of the filter (I hadn't really looked at short filters all that much) but it got me focused on days above upper BBs which seems to be a pretty good edge for shorting.

Bought the gap down on ERX! Sold half into the close. Crude inv on deck 10am.
Kevin break of upper bb is long term bullish and is a buy signal for top rsi stocks. That's the turtle trade.

Yes, but if it occurs several days in a row it usually triggers a one or two day sell-off that is a relatively high probability trade. Note that in this paper trade I will be out at the close tomorrow. No longer term strategy used on this one.

I get it. I was just pointing it out if you didn't know. So sell the pop and buy the dip!

Pretty much, although I am only focusing on short trades with this one.
Intraday Update as of 1:58 PM EST:
AMD - down 3.30%
S - down 8.96%
SPHS - down 5.59% (although this one technically did not qualify since it collapsed back below its Upper BB by the end of the day yesterday).
