i am confused, on the montage, sometimes it shows, SHORT and sometimes SELL, why is that. if i am in a long position, and want to sell, when i press short it doesnt work. Is there anything i am doing wrong. I only do long orders. (in SIM)

Ahmer,

This button always shows "SHRT", you can use the same button for closing your open long position or when you are not in a trade you can use this button to open a short position (selling  borrowed stocks). This button basically execute a sell order, sell your own stocks or borrowed stocks.

Best of luck.
