in simpler terms...when it comes to "shorting", you will want a particular stock to go down.. example you short at $1, when it goes down to $0.98, you will have profited $0.02 if u buyback by then... "Long" means the normal way of buying up...hoping the stock will go up... vice versa of "shorting" |

Long means you buy a stock in anticipation of selling it at a HIGHER price for some profit at a later time. Short means you sell a stock (even if you do not own any of the stock beforehand) with the aim of buying it back at a lower price, and thereby profiting from the price difference. Do note that shorting is a highly risky affair in the Singapore stock market - one has to buy back the shorted stock within the same day or SGX imposes penalties on the short seller. |

SGX cannot short liao, very strong buy up. The horse siao liao, cannot pull back one. This morning I shorted 2 lots but I sensed selling was weak although it went down after I shorted. Then I pull out and cover with little profit and add on contra position, and added more just before lunch...geee, I made from SGX today both direction...hehehe!!! I think SGX is rebounding now from low of 6.3+. So those who wish to short just be cautious. This one siao liao! LONG got better chance! |
