What are buy more and short selling in futures trading?
Buying more futures is bullish, and short selling is bearish.

The so-called "buy more" is bullish buying, and the "more" here is bullish.

The so-called "short selling" means selling short, and the "empty" here means selling a paper contract instead of a physical object.

Options include buy more (call option), short (call option), sell more (put option) and short (put option). Among them, buy call option and sell put option are multi-party (call option), and buy put option is empty (put option).

Futures can be bought first and then sold, or they can be sold first and then bought for hedging. Therefore, futures should create a new concept and distinguish between the first trading behavior and the trading direction. The trading direction creates the concepts of buy more and short selling, and the trading behavior creates the concepts of opening and closing positions.

Buying more refers to buying futures contracts (multiple positions), and short selling refers to selling futures contracts (short positions). Buying more in the same month and buying short positions are just two sides of the same contract, not two kinds of contracts.
