description: "$Intel(INTC.US) Every time I go heavily short, I get squeezed. Once it starts, it's not just for a few days or weeks, it could be for months or even half a year, it's like they're determined to force a margin call. TQQQ has already been liquidated twice in just 2 weeks, it's really weird. If I hold it a bit longer, the cost of shorting is watched so closely, giving no chance to get out at all."

- **爱教数学的小刘老师 · 2026-04-23T04:18:58.000Z**: The returns and risks of short selling are not proportional. Never short recklessly. At most, use 5% of your capital to play around. 😢. Short selling should be done with a gambling mindset. Otherwise, you'll suffer heavy losses.
