PYPL has crashed downwards and the downtrend continues. After a massive descending triangle, price is now coming back to retest the resistance and forming a bear flag. I am looking to short the break of this bear flag, perhaps combined with a double top on the resistance if possible.

But shorting is very risky, I can think of doing it with:
- Naked Short Call (Unlimited Loss and loss will spike with IV)
- Long Put (Safe, but the premium paid weighs down profits)
- Regular Short (using margin, if I am not wrong, risky and interest will be accrued the longer the position is open)
- Short Call Spread (Same as Long Put?? Not sure on this)
Please give me advise on how I can safely short with better risk management.
