Shorting's MUCH riskier than "long". If the stock goes up, unlimited loss potential, while max of 100 % gain if it drops to $0.

Some Trading Platforms will not let you short sell 'Against the Box'. Meaning you cannot sell short a stock that you currently own.

It's called a box trade and most brokerages do not allow it.

When you short the box it’s a wash. You can gain or lose at that point.
