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

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
