How to sell stocks short

[doaausef3li]

Shorting stocks is one of the strategies used in the stock market when traders predict that the market price will decline. It is used to buy at a low price and then sell at a higher price, but in the opposite way. The trader sells shares or securities that he does not actually own. But he borrowed them from a financial broker who believes that their value will decrease in the future. The broker lends them in order to benefit from them and make a profit before their value decreases.

The trader sells the shares that he borrowed at the current market price, i.e. at the highest price. Then he waits until their price decreases, and buys them again after some time, but at a lower price, until he returns them to the broker again.

The trader can make big profits in the short sale process from the difference between the first sale price of the stock and its recovery price, but theoretically the risk of loss in the short sale method is unlimited, because the price of any security can rise infinitely, and therefore there is no guarantee that the price of the stock will decrease after it is sold short, and the stages of this method of selling stocks are divided as follows:

The first stage is the presence of a financial broker who lends stocks or other financial assets to traders.
The trader sells the stocks in the financial markets immediately after borrowing them.
The trader waits for a period of time until the stock price decreases and buys it back at a lower price.
The trader returns the shares he purchased to the financial broker.
