Shorting:
Sell
it Before You Buy It? How do you do that?
It
has been our experience that one major hurdle for gaining the
true perspective of active trading is the element of shorting.
To successfully trade financial entities, one must be equally
comfortable selling as well as buying financial instruments. Many times
we sell issues we don't own
before we buy them. To exit these sell positions, we
cover our transaction to liquidate. The public has been
discouraged from shorting since the beginning of financial
markets.
Shorting is the tool of the insider. This
concept is so ingrained in the culture of markets, that the
SEC established the short sell up tick rule just to make it
difficult for you to open a short position in a down trending
market. The up tick rule is alive and well today and they
don't want to change it. Learn all U can about how to
avoid this silly rule: Silly for you... not for
them. Did I say that right? Let me make this
perfectly clear. The rule exists to inhibit your full
participation in markets... giving the big boys the edge
against you. Your mission, if you should want to accept
it: Identify ways to avoid the short rule in your active
trading. Therefore, you must become an insider to the
markets. The route to your mission: knowledge and
awareness.
Where do you get such awareness? Right here...
