4 trading weeks have past lets see how it went, this post was after the market closed on friday, so ill use mondays prices to test.
there was large market sell off september 6, and almost all stocks hit a 4 week low at that point, so his call to short stocks could have worked out, but did he really know there would be a selloff or was it just luck? im also not sure if the stock would have fallen enough to cover IV or margin interest rates.

this was an interesting one because it -2% almost immediately but then V'd back up by friday. if you held it until the september 6 low it would have been -4.3% but it was quite volatile during the 2 weeks. would have really needed some diamond hands. by now its pushing 52 week highs, so the most you could have got out of this short was -4.3%.

this was a pretty good call, the first week was fairly flat but after that it slid down to -4% on september 6 in a pretty straight line. this one like PYPL you had close on september 6 because it V'd back to near ATHs.
