Well I think we are a long way away from anyone having a chance with a long term short. Maybe if we get up past 300 this year it will be possible... otherwise, they are just asking for pain.

You do realize that leverage can be used to speculate against bitcoin too, right?

tl:dr; The shorts are coming!

I can hear the cries already from the margin calls

short magin calls or long margin calls ?

i hope they are aware that they cannot apply the usual CFD logic with bitcoin. unlike gold or big securities even modest amount of money can swing the price. someone should tell them before they get burned

Why tell them? Better to skin them and put the pelt up on the wall.

Every short that opens has to be closed sooner or later. Repeat after me: For every BTC sold through shorting, a BTC will have to be bought to close the position. Shorting's net effect will be exactly zero. All this will do this stabilize the price, as shorting can temporarily suppress the price if it rises too fast in the eyes of the bears, which is a good thing.

are you joking?...

yeah, you gotta buy back what you shorted, at a lower price!!!!

40btc at $50 are not the same as 40btc at ten....

Rational Exuberance

CEO of etoro is funding bitcoinx.org (they are working on colored coins, aka ripple on the bitcoin block-chain). I talk to Yoni all the time, trying to convince him to do colored coins my way, and that if he does I'll make him the richest man in the world. Haven't convinced him of that yet, but he is definitely into bitcoins big-time.

And even more imporantly, it provides liquidity in the event of a crash as the shorts cover their positions. Thus making it easier to find the floor.

This is why banning short selling during the 2008 crash in the financial markets were so stupid. The shorts were basically the only buyers during the crash. When it was banned there were only sellers left, which increased the volatility.

That is fine, it will keep price more stable. You cannot short when trend is bullish because you lose money. But you can short when there is a bubble, you make money not allowing bubble to grow.

The first is by definition not flawed.

I have to review my original thought :

it really depends how you trade it there.
if you can just buy and sell it seems like a CFD and guys will
just buy and sell for profit without adding any value to the community.

if you can withdraw it might make the bitcoin QUITE hard to come buy if
you know what i mean Cheesy

If you can do margin trading lot of people will be really fucked because
regardless of how expierenced them investors are - this bull here
has horns and this bear here as claws and teeth - and the traps here
are live action ammunition!

As usual - buy on rumors sell on news
and buy bitcoins - never sell

"The company claims to manage investments worth tens of billions annually and reports an annual customer growth rate of 20%. In its public statements the company has reported that is has 1.5 million registered users and claims that it receives 2,000 new account openings every day."

But why hasn't etoro made any statements? I don't know how trustworthy news are when found on a blog..
