Playing & Trading Strategy

Explanation...

Posted by: RazorHawk on Jan 06, 19:15 in response to bobby6987's post I have 1 stock that I bought as a "short"

Buy <--> Sell

Short<--> Cover

 

To get rid of a buy (aka long) you sell.  To get rid of a short, you cover.

We have sell AND cover because technically it is  possible for a port to have some long shares and some short shares at the same time for the same stock and the game needs to know which one you want to get rid of.
