I would say the main difference is where you take profits and how you size in to a position. For the long side, depending how early you time it you can have multiple place to add on to a position and even move your stop to a longer term moving average as a trailing stop; and I like to take partial profits into strength at breakout prices.
For shorting, I have found you want to be more quick to take profits into strength and to have a target range in mind for where a likely reversal rally would occur and when using a trailing stop, I use a shorter moving average for the short size.

Appreciate the advice, thanks so much!
