    When we expect the prices of shares to go up(increase)
    create a LONG POSITION i.e; buy shares and when the prices increases, we sell the shares. This process of selling the shares is known as long unwinding

    When we expect the prices of shares to fall
    create a SHORT postion i.e; sell first and buy later when the price falls.
    Selling the stocks first(without having stocks in Account) and then buying them later before the final settlement is called short position. Buying, in this case is called short covering.
