Shorts
Once you've selected a market (see Testnet UI Walkthrough) you can open new positions or close existing ones.


- Click on the Open a short button in the Shorts tab in your selected market's page. 
- Input the amount you want to short. You can review the resulting position here before proceeding. 
- If your selected market supports deposits in different assets, you may select which base asset to spend for opening your position. 
- Click on the Open Short button. This will prompt a transaction on your web3 wallet. 
Once the transaction is executed on the blockchain, your open position will be listed on the left side of the page.


- Click on your open Short Position under the Short tab of the page. A modal will pop up. 
- Input the amount to close from your Short. 
- Select which of the supported assets you want to receive from closing this short. 
- Click on the Close short button. This will prompt a transaction on your web3 wallet. 
Once the transaction is executed on the blockchain, your position will be closed. You can still see its details under the Closed tab.
