What do you mean by short?
An investment position created by selling short positions. The positions held after selling futures contracts are called short positions, referred to as short positions.

This only exists in futures trading, but not in spot trading. If the timing of entering the market is good, there is a great chance of profit. In other words, investors put forward the selling price in advance because they expect the price to fall, or make selling more than buying. Holding positions is a common word in the financial industry, which is often used in finance, securities, stocks and futures trading. The difference between open long contracts and open short contracts is called net position. Since this position has not been written off, it can benefit from the decline in market prices.

In foreign exchange transactions, "opening a position" means opening a position. After the opening, one currency is long (long) and the other currency is short (short). On the other hand, if the timing of entering the market is improper, it is prone to losses. For example, when futures trading opens, the positions held after buying futures contracts are called long positions, referred to as long positions.

How to make a profit, just like our current stock index futures, can buy up or down. The so-called short position is to buy it. Unlike the domestic market, foreign markets can only buy up and can conduct two-way transactions.

What is the difference between a short position in a futures contract and a put option? In fact, the two directions are the same, but the loss of the option is certain and the gain is infinite. The gains and losses of futures are infinite.

The bear is the seller. In the stock market, buyers who buy stocks will become potential shorts. That is, after buyers buy stocks, when the future stock price reaches their expected position, they will sell stocks, and when they sell stocks, they will become short; Funds that are still waiting to see have become bulls.
