I've been shorting and covering AMZN for a while, most of the time it's been profitable until the big run-up from $60s and I've just held on to my shorts. You will notice that the $50 short back in Sept 97 was followed by a drop to low 40s in AMZN. My bad timing experience has been from trading with stocks like BLDPF and JBIL, but I was lucky with AMZN until my last batch at $60. My current unclosed short positions are at 60, 73, and 94 with my last covered batch at 85 just before this short squeeze. Any other questions on my positions?
