You’ll notice the chart for ALRM looks almost identical to SPXC…

If the trade works properly, the stock should make new lows in a week or two, which is where I would begin taking profits.

The fundamentals for AMD actually look good. But as always, the market knows best…
And the market has been selling AMD en masse for the last six months.
Last week, the stock tested its 50-day moving average (red line) without success.
The stock appears to be rolling over, giving investors a low-risk opportunity to play the short side.
Consider selling AMD short here with a stop above last week’s high at $104.25.
