hi,
i am sometimes asked as to what days to cover is.
The meaning of days to cover is a measurement of a company's issued shares that are currently shorted, expressed as the number of days required to close out all of the short positions. For example, if a company has average daily volume of 1 million shares and 2 million shares are currently short sold, the shares have a cover rate of 2 days (2M/1M).
Also referred to as the "short-interest ratio".
This ratio is somewhat unique because it measures the future buying pressure on a stock that is virtually certain to happen - short sellers must buy back shares at some point if they are to close out their positions.
If a stock's price begins to rise significantly, investors who have short sold the stock will quickly begin to close out their positions (by purchasing shares off the open market), creating buying pressure for the stock and driving the price up even more. If a previously lagging stock turns very bullish, the buying action of short sellers can result in extra upward momentum and increased losses for short sellers who are slow to close out their positions. The longer the days to cover, the more pronounced this effect can be.

hello guys,
apparently the proposition that the DKK is believed to decrease against the JMD until February 19 is somehow connected to the fact that the household and kitchen appliance industry are forecast to move upwards and cause the DKK rates to get stronger this fact would account for the downtrend of the DKK.Posted 1 month ago # -
yuo must pay more attention to processes related to the tertiary sector industry field like, for instance the fact that DKK rates will be affected by the fall in the garment imports, and because of that is going to lower, and concentrate on trade ing tips like the supposition that the DKK-JMD is expected to stand still for a while, if you are looking to learning the current foreign exchange market balance.
