Okay, so if you don't mind, I'd like to ask a few questions about "cellar boxing", since I've never heard of this before.

1) Suppose hypothetically, I somehow managed to short some shares of FFGO at $0.0002, and I covered those shares to realize a profit at $0.0001.

Why must I do anything (cellar boxing, or anything else) following that trade in order that I be allowed to keep my money after I've covered?

2) What does it mean to keep a stock "cellar boxed"?

3) How is "cellar boxing" done?

A casual stroll through the lunatic asylum shows that faith does not prove anything. Friedrich Nietzsche
