DislikedNedging....ok I give up, give us a clue! Negative Hedging? Never-do-it Hedging?Ignored
I was only Infomed of the meaning of 'nedging' afew weeks ago when I asked smjones(?), he said:
Nedging is Newbie Hedging, ie. Going/being long and short the same Instrument at the same time.
Real hedging Is used In similar but not Identical markets, Eg. Banking sector- You suspect bank A Is going to do well because they have new pens tied to the desks so you go long, but to secure yourself just incase the whole sector falls you take a short possition In several others. This way you are only exposed to the risk of the new pens not bringing In new customers and not an overall desaster for banks in general.

Just thought I would repeat this again Incase anyone missed what hedging actually is.

Ps. If there are any sexy new bank clerks working in your local branch consider going long.
Living the adventure in my head.
