Abstract
Swing trading with short positions is quite different from swing trading with long positions. Sellers have specific advantages but also face a different set of risks. This chapter provides examples and compares long and short options in swing trading strategies and examines how risks differ between the two.
Every thought derives from a thwarted sensation.
Emile M. Cioran, The Trouble with Being Born, 1973
