My very first short. In at 4.32 and out at 4.53, for a stock that was hot on the day due to earnings report and press releases. Lesson Learned: Do NOT short a stock in the green. Only short stocks with at least one red day, or gap-ups from previous days. On the other hand, if I held this overnight, it would have been a 10% gain.
