    This is one of the most useful seminars I have seen for free from ITPM - very useful insights and examples of what to look for., as well as the general guidelines to stick to. Of course the paid content will go into way more detail, but this alone is extremely useful. For a lot of people, shorting is either an alien or unethical concept, but this outlines very well why is it so useful (even necessary) and why there's nothing wrong with it (e.g. it helps create an efficient market). Even for people who identify as investors (rather than traders), having an allocation of your portfolio for shorts/puts can make sense to hedge market downside risk, especially if they are well selected shorts which can make money even if the market does keep going up. Thanks Jason and ITPM.

    From personal experience as a short seller. Wait until there is a nice downdraft in the overall market indices before shorting. Also let the stock rally up to a lower high and then hit it! Never try to short in a bull market - best way to get run in and lose your capital!

      Good advice on the bear market momentum, but why do you identify only as a "short seller"? First, you are missing out on making money in bull runs and second, as ITPM repeatedly say, you need to be both long and short in all market conditions, even in a bull market.

    This channel has put spark back into my life that have not felt for years. Dabbled in stock market years ago before getting smashed getting greedy picking bottoms by a delisting of a major zinc producer. Have eyes on an incredible short opportunity and will make sure to pull the pin whilst managing the risk. Living in China for two decades can smell the BS all the way from Shanghai from some of the Chinese plays on Nasdaq. One stock in particular doubling the last couple of months.

      The Institute does post multiple videos like this and better on our website at www.itpm.com/videos/ and at www.itpm.com/education/ - There are hundreds of them.., BUT the difference is you have to pay for them. We are releasing a few that are 3 years old so you get to see the high quality of our education. If you then want to see more you have to pay. Or you can just sit around for another 3 years not making any money from financial markets because you either have the money to complete our programs and you're protesting paying for our FULL educational programs OR you don't have the money. Either way, in 3 years time, what are you doing? You're still sitting there waiting for free videos to drop with your dick in your hands..., and then you've made no money from financial markets in 6 years, whilst other people who can do the math of 2 + 2 and get 4, realize from videos like these that ITPM is the best out there, they then buy our programs, then they go on to make money for the rest of their lives for themselves.

    And one more thing. High dividend yield is an argument FOR shorting the stock, not against it. The reasons are the same as with low P/E - as the speaker says, the market is on your side.

  • @hassanamghar3031
    @hassanamghar3031 5 років тому +4

    Shorting is a tough business basically you're limiting your up-side with unlimiting your downside.
    I'll stay with value investing & dividend growth investing.
