Hi,

I have no experience short selling but I debate shorting now. Good idea? Anyone with experience? BTC seems overbought...

When you short with leverage and the market is moving on you, you will lose all your capital. If you shorted on January 24th, you would have lost 38$ per BTC x your leverage in 3 days.

Just don't leverage with Bitcoin, it is too volatile, it is just waiting to bankrupt people if they over-leverage. Currencies are perfect for leverage normally, CHF aside!
