And there you have it from the horse's mouth (or, in this case, rear end).

When someone uses one of their identities to tell you to hold a short position, with justifications for how it's not going to hurt you, you know that the big move up is about to happen. And, that the one telling you to "trade" a short position has covered his short, gone long, and hoping that you will be stupid enough to jump in, just in time to be killed by a short squeeze.
