If I have $10000 in my account, and sell $20000 of stock, I have $30000 in my account. If the stock goes to 0, and I never have to pay back the loan, I will have $30000. It is indeed a 200% return. If when the stock value falls to $10000 I short more of the same stock with my profit, I have initiated a new trade, and any return on the new trade should be calculated independantly of the previous trade. 200% is the maximum return.
