i am referring to basic shorting! you can NEVER make 100% on a single short ! FACT. i am NOT referring to puts or other type positions.

here's an example for the dumb like you-----short 100 shs at $100 ... that is $10,000 position + broker commission. then stock goes bankrupt and trades at .001...so you cover 100 shares at .001 which will NEVER give you 100% gain. (99.999 profit-broker commissions) / $100 basis=less than 100% NEVER can make 100% on a short! learn math retard
