BTC surges past 9 k and short term threats are growing...
Short term positions are always most vulnerable when values are increasing or decreasing rapidly because that's when there's the most volatility. On the other hand, it is also when the most profit is to be had for people who are successful with their trades and in that sense it is a double aged sword.
Short trading is very risky you really have to watch the price movement of every coin. Personally if you really want to experience the real growth then HODL bitcoin, and make yourself busy to other things, yes you are making money through that but you are wasting your time because you can't buy bitcoin as the same price in the past.
but short trading are profitable when you are starting in trading for you to learn more about trading cause if you could go straight to long term than in short term you may take some looses for so better to start in short term but dont just waste your time on that make some way on how you can have bitcoin for you to have at least some long term.
