Honest and really dumb question. I never tether'd up because I didn't believe in it, but isn't that the only way to sell high and buy low instead of jumping on whatever altcoin gains next?
Are you supposed to tether before it crashes for maximum profit?
Unless you're trading on an exchange with fiat pairings, yes
No you short the market.
The market goes up: You win
The market goes down: You win
going in tether is shorting the market you fucking retard; it's just with 0 leverage
>Tethering is the same as shorting
Do not make another post again.
binance doesn't have leverage though
ah k, that's what I figured. Thank you
so you were not trolling, off yourself nigger seriously this board has gone to pure shit
>Tethering is the same as shorting
Is your IQ in the double digits?
he said with 0 leverage which makes it pretty much true tard
>going in tether is shorting the market
>its just with 0 leverage
>the aim of the trader is to sell the items at a high price then purchase them back at a lower one
Hello?
>A transaction undertaken by means of a derivative contract is a short position but it is technically not a short sale
>technically not a short sale
They're both shorting. What are you on about? Do you have autism?
SHORTING, or SHORT SELLING by definition implies leverage. You need to borrow to short. If you simply sell the stock or currency you own you are not shorting, you are SELLING.
Is it really that hard to grasp?
>Shorting and leveraging
>putting in money in a short position because you believe the price will go down
>if it goes against your position then you lose your money in the short position
>Selling
>Selling the stock at a certain price
>If it goes against your position nothing happens to your stack
>It's the same thing
Hes right you mong, tethering up is shorting without leverage, what do you think happens when you short? You sell and buy back later.
What happens when you tether up? You sell and buy back later.
stupid dummy
TETHER AM ARTIFICIAL USD CONSTRUCT
WHEN YOU BUY TETHER YOU AM BORROWING IMAGINARY USD VALUE
tether 0 leverage short in PUREST SENSE
>this thread
selling is not shorting you dumbfucks
answer honestly: have you ever actually shorted anything in your life? no, selling is not shorting
have you shorted with no leverage? be honest
I know the answer is no because you're fucking retarded
>While short selling and short position generally refer to the same thing both in common parlance and technical jargon
Autism
Lmfao yes, have you? You know you can short with 0x leverage, right? You're so fucking autistic it's impossible for you to grasp such a simple concept. Hint: what's the POV?
Or point of measurement is a better term
shorting with no leverage is not the same as selling you stupid fuck
Tethering up IS you stupid fuck
Explains it flawlessly
You are the dumbest motherfucker alive, how are you even alive, when you short you are betting against BTC by buying USD
Tether is shorting with 0 leverage. if you still don't get it I give up there's no hope for you.
>Tether is shorting with 0 leverage.
No it is not. You stupid fuck.
When you are shorting, you are putting money in a short position. When you are selling, you are selling a stock. How is that hard grasp for you? Or you are too much of a vagina to short anymore more than x2 therefore you need to justify that shorting is the same as selling? Even the Investopedia definition contradicts your argument. You smell like shit. You have no valid stand. Fuck off and never come back. You low IQ mongrel.
>Selling is just shoring with 0x leverage
hahahahaha
Ahh, you're one of THOSE people! You're that kind of special retard who thinks:
>"selling btc is the same as shorting btc"
>"holding btc is the same as longing btc"
Ladies and gentlemen, behold and savor the moment, for that user is one of the finest examples of true brainlet level retardation which Jow Forums has to offer.

You are the dumbest motherfucker alive

>99% of Jow Forums in 2018 doesn't know that tether is the same as shorting with 0 leverage
I guess it's time for an oldfag to leave, this board is truly dead.
>1 month old lurker

thanks for buying my bags in december nignog
>8 month old lurker
>still doesn't know the difference between a short and a sell
Oldfag, right, good one. Hell you're probably fresh from reddit and found Jow Forums recently when someone talked about it there. If you truly believe selling equals shorting then you must be a very very new fag. Of course you could be an older fag who's just bored and baiting for cheap lulz.
