Although well-below the bearish rising wedge now, (Ambac Financial Group) still appears to have considerable downside before the first & final targets & as such, offers an objective short entry. As with the previously posted TIPT & MBI short trades, my preferred is to take a starter position here, likely adding to that position either tomorrow or next week, depending on how the charts develop going forward. Daily chart below.
