a short is just an upside down long, there is nothing wrong making money both ways. I'd agree with you to never short but only if you are clueless about trading and have 20 year plan putting away monthly savings in an index fund.
Started a new account couple weeks back where have per share vs per trade commissions. Got 208 short trades today lol
