A long position is established when an asset is purchased with the expectation of its future rise in price.
Having just taken a long position in ACME’s stock, I was dismayed by its recent price drop.
Also referred to as buying long or going long, this is essentially what arises when an investor or speculator acquires a security. It is contrasted to a short position wherein an investor has sold assets he or she has borrowed with the expectation to cover the short position by buying the assets back at a future lower price.
Dlouhá pozice vzniká nákupem aktiva s očekáváním, že jeho budoucí cena stoupne.
Protože jsem právě otevřel dlouhou pozici v akciích ACME, byl jsem zklamán nedávným propadem jejich ceny.
Označuje se také jako dlouhý nákup. Když investor nebo spekulant koupí cenný papír, v zásadě vznikne dlouhá pozice. Stojí v protikladu ke krátké pozici, kdy investor prodal aktiva, která si vypůjčil s očekáváním, že tuto krátkou pozici pokryje budoucím odkoupením těchto aktiv za nižší cenu.
