I shorted BitUSD at 1500 and rolled them over ever since. That's kind of easy when you do it properly.
The thing is, if you wait, you won't probably short that cheap.
In the other hand, there is some unknowns with shorts when 2.0 will come to light.
I kinda think that from now to the 2.0 release, the price will go up significantly, so I'm not risking too much. Even if I get slightly screwed with the new rules, it's gonna make me a profit anyway.
This thtead is one of plenty about the same subject. The community is in the dark about how to effectively short, cover and prepare for the 2.0 release with short positions.
That's the main reason why we have a gigantic wall of margin and expired shorts. Nobody shorts because they don't have enough information to do it safely.
Someone (not me, too dumb) should resume the rules and explain it in a easy way. Maybe some devs could approve that there is no mistake. It could have a very beneficial effect on the actual BitUSD market. It looks scary when you know what is happenning but if you are an outsider, it looks that BitShares is just no working correctly.
