Don't feel bad. Shorting is complicated enough, naked shorting gets even more complicated.

Look, the reality is that usually the short slime rarely get squeezed real bad. Even if it were 2 for 1, don't you think a lot of true blue longs would probably sell at .10? So short slime covers, price falls and they cover even cheaper!!

But, every now and then, the longs stay long...every now and then.

Shorting is risky...you limit return to a MAX of 100%, but the risk can be far greater..the exact opposite of going long. Shorters are limited, short sighted, if you will.
Shorters are not the people that discover new lands, inventions, fly into space.
