LE vs SE

Postby my2108 » 05 Oct 2018

HI all,

If I am already having a position on a particular instrument, would issuing a "sellshort" instruction of the same instrument close the outstanding position and sellshort, or do I have to specifically close level my position first?

Same question in the reserve direction, if I am in a negative position of an instrument(sellshort), would issuing a simple "buy" instruction help me to cover and also increase my position?

Check the Wiki,
the explanation and examples are very clear.

Alternatively, you can go to the Wiki page and enter the keyword "sellshort" into the search box. You will find all the articles associated with this keyword.
