Really you have character to tell yourself not to " gamble" and really stick to it.  Cheers. rotijai      ( Date: 05-Jun-2012 16:37) Posted: no, you are wrong. as long as u trade/play the right direction, u can win by being a longist or shortist... and long and short require the same amount of capital.. unless u are talking about cash acc which only allows ppl to buy it is about fear and greed. longist and shortist are just traders one thing that you are right is longists normally miss out the profits because the market falls fast.. one more thing to add is shortist normally miss out juicy peaks also because the market falls fast for them to enter *i dont trade anymore, just trying to give a more accurate info on short/long Bopanha      ( Date: 05-Jun-2012 16:12) Posted: Shortists always win because they don't need much capital to play with the longists who need much more capital. to upfront.  Furthermore there are more bears than bulls during a year, so the shortists are the winners most of the time, that is why they can buy Farraris and Porches. The market cannot do much to the shortists because longists always fear to lose too much and cannot further buy if the market is against them.  Shortists on the other hand can continue to short if the market continues to rise because they know one fine day the market will fall back for them to take profits.    The longists also think that the market will go up for them to take profits, but usually they will miss out because usually when the market falls it falls very fast.

x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	Having said all said, the only way that shortists can lose the battle is that BBs come up with a plan to shoot them down and push up the market for several years in one stretch.  But can this happen?  Not likely.
