Playing & Trading Strategy

Kind of weird question about shorting when you have limited money MattW Jun 04, 09:51

The only time I cover a short is when I think it has bottomed out or the price suddenly jumps and stays up (talking to you MWTDW) {nm} Initech Jun 04, 10:07

He does have a point though. Ive heard of some covering shorts in order to short more shares if they believe the price is going to keep fal Dorfman Jun 04, 10:43

Yeah, it's call re-shorting. All the billionaires are doing it. {nm} elchan2012 Jun 04, 14:34

lol {nm} Dorfman Jun 04, 16:00

Once you gain money on a short, it can't do any work for you if you're just holding into it. Personally, I won't reshort until I gain 20%... socby19 Jun 04, 12:53

Covering Shorts frees up cash to spend on other things. Yowster Jun 04, 12:55

Interesting comments. I've never really put much thought into churning shorts. Kudos for +1 strategy! {nm} Initech Jun 05, 08:35

I think I offended the moderator gods...or Tommy's legal team...not sure which.... {nm} JustaGuy Jun 02, 10:07

Don't post current stock movement, which may lead to further stock movement. {nm} Antibody Jun 02, 10:33

Was pretty funny though... Dorfman Jun 02, 10:57

So if i said "That stock" instead of the actual name, would that have cleared me? {nm} JustaGuy Jun 02, 11:46

anyone else experiencing this? ZBTMafia Jun 02, 07:12

Summer is usually a very good time in HSX {nm} slappydavid Jun 02, 11:50

I'm confused... My Portfolio says i'm down H$193,166.96 (-0.32%) for today, and yet all of my net loss only equals about H$88,0000 {nm} Dorfman Jun 02, 05:31

woW. Well thank goodness they changed that. LOL {nm} Dorfman May 30, 10:13

Probably was a play on words, as in "All you need is (s)kill"? But yeah, good that they changed it. Representative review here, btw: Facto Jun 01, 01:40

my second blockbuster season. i called godzilla correctly, and didnt trust the 115 strike on x-men...but nor did it trust myself enough to horrorfanatic May 27, 19:27

I shorted xmen but then I doubted myself some and covered some of my short. Wish I had kept the whole thing oh well.. {nm} Dorfman May 27, 19:49

back when i started i didnt even know what shorted meant....i didnt know anything except to buy {nm} horrorfanatic May 27, 21:04

That's why it's best when you buy (or short) a stock to always 'max' out...you always regret it if your pick scores and you aren't maxed! {nm} Flash May 28, 07:51

yeah... I got scared. LOL {nm} Dorfman May 28, 10:16
