>>> The purpose of this tactic is to keep the buyers coming into the stock while building the short position. <<<

The letter you posted clearly said that the writer SHORTED THE BOX

That means he or she did not build any short position!

your comments on this couldn't be more in error.

Shorting the box means you short your against your own shares!

Hey Mr. Tech Master what gives ? why all this wrong information ?

also, please explain why anyone would build a short position while buyers are coming in ? That makes zero sense.

You build a short position at near the top of the move, not at the bottom.

I have never heard of such a thing. Utterly incorrect.

I can't believe people on these thread listened to you, when you don't even know what shorting the box means.
