Probably one of the more confusing topics for new investors and traders, the concept of shorting! After this video it will make perfect sense, but also keep in mind that shorting is not evil or bad as some main stream media makes it seem, its just part of the normal trading process. Good traders go short as easily as they go long. I always tell people, if you are scared of shorting, just turn your screen upside down and pretend you are going long!
