Strategy for Shorts: As stocks fall we must avoid the temptation to increase our short
positions because we were "right". We should be taking some profits and increasing
our cash position. We have watched long side investors double up their positions as
their stocks rise only to lose all their profits when it falls back. Short side investors can
also fall prey to greed as stocks fall, it may very well bounce back up. Take some
profits, don't double up positions.
