■ Short Selling
Short selling involves borrowing a stock, selling it, and later repurchasing it to return the borrowed shares.
Tip: It is beneficial to sell when stock prices are high and buy back when prices are low. The lower the stock price drops, the higher the profit.
§ Short Selling Status Window
Credit Limit
The maximum amount of stock that can be borrowed for short selling at the current time.
As company value increases, the short selling limit also increases.
Collateral
Gold obtained by selling borrowed stocks through short selling.
Collateral is added to the total gold balance, but can only be used for stock repayment and not for any other purpose.
The collateral amount updates daily based on the previous day's closing price of the shorted stock. (UTC 00:00 update)
Repayment
Short selling positions can be held for a maximum of 3 days. After the deadline, stocks are automatically repurchased at market price.
Repayment deadlines are calculated collectively per day, not based on individual positions. (UTC 00:00 update)
Stock Status
Displays currently held stock names and their current prices.
Short Selling Status
Displays the average price of shorted stocks, borrowed quantity, and current profit/loss ratio.
When the repayment deadline expires, the shorted stocks are automatically repurchased at market price.
Early repayment is always possible before the deadline.
Additional short-selling positions can be opened, but existing positions cannot have their deadlines extended.
Interest is accrued on shorted stocks until the repayment deadline and is calculated daily before being settled collectively. (UTC 00:00 update)
Therefore, manually repaying before the deadline is more advantageous.
§ How to Use Short Selling
You can switch to short selling from the top-right of the existing Order Book.
Since short selling involves borrowing and selling stocks, it is conducted from the Sell section of spot trading.
Conversely, repayment (closing a short position) is done from the Buy section.
Other trading mechanics follow the same rules as regular stock trading.
Including transaction fees and trade history tracking.
