I guess I can introduce stop-loss and other cautionary measures to prevent snowballing loss, but shorting is shorting.. Wonder if I could resist the urge.

In the same vane Shorting tech stocks as rates are going down could be a bad play. As valuation for tech stocks tend to rise on lower interest rates because of some BS with their assets. I forget. But as this is a month old post.... How'd that work out for you? I think we know.

Not so fast, lemming. My bet got back to profit, theoretically I can close it now. I am waiting, though. If things go awry, I can always close at a small loss when my stop-loss is reached. Never do naked bets.
