It goes without saying that the bears are not fairing to well in this market and understandably so. 

Below you will find my complete list of bearish trade setups and the ones that appeal to me most. While compiling this list, I was trying to think today – how can one really have an edge shorting stocks in this market? And the only thing that I could come up with is shorting a handful of stocks near the close of the market and covering them within the first 30 minutes the market is open the following day, because it’s the opening bell that has been the weakest lately and if you are lucky perhaps the futures will tank overnight and you’ll get a bigger than expected return on your trade. 

With that said, I think there are plenty of long opportunities that are worth focusing on instead, as the indices, across the board continue to push higher without any resistance in its path. 

Here’s my list of bearish trade setups:
