"Shorting" is that you own any asset that you don't need, but you decide to not sell it and purchase bitcoins instead.

When this gets into the dictionary , it will be a great day for Bitcoin

The two last time the price stay in a short range for few days (around 130 and around 200, it was the preparation for the next stage). And it looks like we are gonna stay around 640 (stamp) for a while.

Shorting = borrowing coins to sell them, in the hopes that the price per coin will be lower when you have to give them back. A "short sell" is to sell an asset (BTC) you don't own, you just have borrowed it to sell it because you anticipate the price to go down.

That's extremely dangerous with BTC, because the price has the potential to double multiple times very quickly, and thus you can face huge losses by shorting.

That's what "shorting" means, but in these forums many people say they are "short" when they have sold coins, which is not correct. What can you expect in a forum where most of people thinks that ROI is a synonym for break-even....

Historical highs and lows compared using rpietila's trendline:

      Date        Price  / Trend  = x%       (Factor)
Lows  2011-11-17    1.99 /   2.05 =   97.11% (1 /  1.03)
      2012-08-19    7.58 /  13.90 =   54.52% (1 /  1.83)
      2013-04-16   50.01 /  74.30 =   67.31% (1 /  1.49)
      2013-07-05   65.42 / 129.59 =   50.48% (1 /  1.98)
Highs 2011-06-08   31.91 /   0.67 = 4780.29% (1 * 47.80)
      2012-01-05    7.22 /   2.87 =  251.38% (1 *  2.51)
      2012-08-17   15.04 /  13.71 =  109.67% (1 *  1.10)
      2013-04-10  266.00 /  71.22 =  373.48% (1 *  3.73)
      2013-11-19  900.98 / 333.86 =  269.87% (1 *  2.70)


This looks interesting - but what does it mean?
That you should not buy when the deviation factor is higher than... I would say 2.


I should add that the trendline is still being refined with every passing week. For example, if the same trendline had been built in june 2011 I wonder if $32 would seem such a large deviation at the time.
