I really don't want to complicate this trading method for everyone trying to learn how i trade.. I like to keep it simple, because I make plenty from just taking long positions.. However you can trade both directions effectively.. I dont think it makes much sense to focus on shorting in a bull market, but it can be just as profitable.. I however dont short cryptos, but I do ocationally sell spikes (with my free coins), and rebuy my core position after it settles down..
