Agreed. And it seems your position is that I somehow contributed to a 6% drop. Maybe it would have been 10%. How do we know?

The first time I experienced a short attack, it almost worked on me. Then, through discussion and experience, I learned to not be afraid of it.

New investors lack the experience. How would you recommend we help them not to unwittingly aid the shorts when they come? If there is a better way, I'm all ears.
