O/T - Switch Hitting

OK, I won't tell you the current price of HAND. <gg> But at least you've made the attempt. :)

If you think about it for a bit, long and short positions both require a round trip to close profitably, and the hardest part about both is deciding when to sell. (JMHO, of course.)

To continue with the baseball metaphor, perhaps you can build up your switch-hitting acumen by practice swinging with a heavy doughnut in the on-deck circle (i.e., short selling on paper)? Practice makes perfect, you know.

Just a thought. Good luck.
