You can use TA to short stocks too.

Yah, but shorting is very risky for me. Who knows when is the bottom and the stocks rebounds.

That is your own perception.

Stocks crash much faster than when they rally. It is risky either way

Going long is very risky for me. Who knows when the market will top and crash.

I set stop loss for my stock, so I normally don't lose a lot on 1 stock.
