look for selling (short) opportunities.

a) look for underlying stock at the support or
bouncing back from support.
b) Check lower avg is above the higher avg.
c) Check underlying stock is above it's 50 day avg.
d) Stochastic should be below 20.
e) Volume should be more than avg volume.

you can wait if it get's the support at
previous low.
