I wanted to learn how to short stocks but with limited exposure a while ago. Not sure what I wanted to short back then. But maybe I'll try to short Discord now just for fun.

I think most trading platforms only offer shorting through CFDs, not the real way of shorting, which is borrowing actual shares to sell with a promise to buy them back later. I’ve never shorted and don’t plan to because when you short, you can lose more than 100%, while when you're long, the most you can lose is 100%.

Yeah shorting is risky business. Why they turned off the buy button on Robinhood to stop the pain for those who were short GameStop stock

No way, that's way out of my league when it comes to risk, haha.
