Yes that is the attitude that makes you a pedantic asshole. What I said was perfectly understandable grammatically and contextually.

No shit sherlock. That's why I didn't use the phrase 'sell short' or 'short sell'. Again, short = to go short = sell. Got it yet? Fuck me.

Motley Fool? Fuck off! Stopped reading that 'for the masses' shit in the frigging nineties, motley fucking fool?! JESUS.
You're obviously quite bitter about the fact you don't know jack shit about stock terminology. To short something
always means to sell something short or else buy put options or the like.
The idea that you actually know jack shit talking about 'red engulfing candles' or whatever chartology-astrology gobbledygook you think means anything whatsoever is absurd.
What you said was 'understandable' as being something someone who doesn't know WTF they're talking about would say.
