Short selling is a common operation mode in stock futures market. The operation is to expect the stock futures market to have a downward trend. The operator will sell the chips in his hand at the market price, and then buy them after the stock futures fall to earn the intermediate price difference.
For example, at present, soybeans are short at 3 100/ ton, so you can open positions at 3 100/ ton. At this time, the position direction is to sell. When the soybean fell to 3000/ ton, it was bought and closed, thus earning 100 yuan/ton.

Some points to pay attention to when shorting:
First, investors are required to have the ability to judge the overall trend of the market.
Because shorting is only applicable when the market is in a downward channel, at other times, such as when the market is in a horizontal consolidation stage or a bull market stage, this operation skill cannot be adopted. Therefore, investors are required to recognize the general direction of future trends.
Second, short should grasp the rhythm of stock price operation, sell when the stock price rebounds and buy when the stock price plummets.
On the way down in a weak market, there will often be a short-term rebound and a diving plunge. Investors should make full use of this irrational change opportunity in the market and make maximum use of the price difference opportunity created by the wide fluctuation of stock prices to obtain profits.
