Short Positions

[Chris Thorpe]

How do you enter short positions?

Thanks!

Hi Chris!

In the basic template you just fill out everything up to PnL from left to right. In the column "Direction" you put "S". Can be s or S, both work. For long it's L or l.

You can delete all columns except the ones with the red header:

The important fields to fill are "Direction" (S for short), Entry (entry price) either Target price or Exit price and the position Size.

Make a new copy if you want to, I've made an edit in the template (to grey out the Direction fields when there's no input)
