Long is when the trader buys the stock forst and then sells the stock.
Short is when the stock is first sold and then is bought. (Option is available only within a day)
when we expect the share price to go long we create a long position and when the price go down we create short position
long unwinding is selling the share which already bought and exit long position and short covering is buying the stock which we sold earlier.
LONG Buy the shares first
SHORT selling the shares first
LONG UN WINDING selling the shares which are bought
SHORT COVERING buying those number of shares which are already sold
Long – Buying a share (the intention could either be taking delivery or selling on the same day)
Short – Selling a share when the trader do not have that share in possession
Long unwinding – Closing the long position by selling the shares bought (in long action)
Short Covering – Closing the short position by buying the shares sold (in short action)
long/short/long unwinding/short covering are positional trading
long – buying the shares to sell after some time is long position
short – selling the shares when price of the share starts to fall, without holding them
long unwinding – selling the shares bought after some time and exiting the long position
short covering – buying the shares which are already sold and exiting the short position
