This has already been explained in the thread by multiple users.
I'm not a trader, don't know how to short.
The one situation I thought about it was shorting EA back in July 2018, would have if possible timed mid November. I don't know how that works.
As mentioned, the risk is infinite and the reward fixed. Timing is incredibly important. Musk has pulled tricks to try to screw shorters. Must in trouble for that? I don't recall the particulars.
