SHORT TRADING AND LONG TRADING
EVERY TRADER MUST KNOW 👇
📉 *Short Entry (Shorting):*
You *bet the price will go down*.
Example: You “sell” Bitcoin at 70K, hoping to buy it back at65K and keep the 5K difference.
📈 *Long Entry (Longing):*
You *bet the price will go up*.
Example: You buy Bitcoin at60K, expecting it to pump to 70K and profit from the10K move.
🔁 *Key Difference:*
- *Long* = Profit if price goes *UP*
- *Short* = Profit if price goes *DOWN*
⚖️ *Which is safer?*
*Longs are generally safer*, especially in bull markets. Crypto tends to go up over time 📈
Shorting is riskier — if the price keeps going up, your losses are unlimited 😬
📊 *Pro Tips:*
- Use stop-losses always 🚨
- Don’t use high leverage unless you’re a pro 🧠
- Trade the trend: go long in bull markets, short in strong downtrends only.
Trade smart, not emotional 😎💸
