Im a newb?

Posted by: zedmot on Nov 10, 08:52

So I am new to this and I have been trying to figure everything out. However, for some reason short selling is confusing to me. Could some explain when you want to short sell and how you profit from short selling?

You short a moviestock (or starbond or whatever) when you think its price is going to go down. The profit you make is the price you short RogerMore Nov 10, 10:12

You didn't get what I meant. I know how short/long works. It's stock monitoring I was talking about {nm} Lib84 Nov 10, 11:48

Well, your question was about how shorts work / profits....can you clarify what your question is about stock monitoring??? {nm} Flash Nov 10, 16:36
