Mickydj: You post
"To illustrate the mechanics, assume a trader holds a short position of 8 million shares.
Recent price swings might look something like this:
Trade 1
Sell at 0.60p
Buy back at 0.43p
Gross trading gain: £13,600
Trade 2
Sell at 0.52p
Buy back at 0.43p
Gross trading gain: £7,200
Trade 3
Sell at 0.50p
Buy back at 0.36p
Gross trading gain: £11,200
Trade 4
Sell at 0.45p
Buy back at 0.38p
Gross trading gain: £5,600
Across those four hypothetical trades, the gross trading gain would be approximately £37,600 on a single 8 million share position."
Wow, so easy why didn't I think of that !
But I'm not sure that is and different to any punters strategy on AIM. You are simply describing
BUY LOW - SELL HIGHER, BUY LOWER- SELL HIGHER etc etc
