<<...time is not my enemy, just the shorts>>

Well, you've got that kinda screwed up. If you like to think in such terms (and I wouldn't recommend such an emotional approach, BTW), you should consider the other longs your "enemies" and the shorts your "friends". Folks are often confused on this point.

Why?

Buying drives share prices up; selling drives share prices down. Other longs aren't going to help you out there, but shorts will. Every long is eventually going to sell, putting supply into the market; every short is eventually going to cover, putting demand into the market. Longs sit here on the board chatting it up so that they can increase the share price and then bail out to other longs. Fortunately, shorts will also be there to buy your shares.

Basic principles.

FWIW,
