Simply put, a short is the opposite of a long. Opening a short
implies purchasing Short tokens at their market price which is the
same as the Long token&rsquo;s discount (i.e., the fixed rate
applied to the position size). Shorts accrue variable interest (APY)
on the full size of the position being shorted. Opening a Short
causes the market price of Shorts to increase (which also means the
market price of Longs decreases), while closing shorts has the
inverse effect. Users can take speculative short positions or use

Liquidity providers (LPs) take potential revenue from 3 different
sources: <br /> - Trading fees from Longs and Shorts being opened
sources: <br /> - Trading fees from longs and shorts being opened
and closed by traders. <br /> - Variable rate on their idle capital
being deployed to the underlying yield source. <br /> - Profit (or
loss) resulting from taking the other side of traders’ positions.

Furthermore, LP capital isn&rsquo;t tied to a specific maturity
date, so these benefits remain until the funds are withdrawn by the
LP. <br /> Learn more about{" "}

description={
<span>
You open an LP position by providing base asset to the AMM. This
increases the AMM&rsquo;s capacity for longs and shorts. LP capital
is then used to back long and short positions opened by traders.
<br />
<br />
LPs can withdraw their capital at any time, but if part of it is
currently backing open positions, the AMM will temporarily keep that
part and give Withdrawal Shares to the LP until there is enough idle
liquidity available to replace that capital. <br />
<br />
When long or short positions are closed, the liquidity used to back
them is freed up and used to buy back Withdrawal Shares, at which
point LPs can complete their pending withdrawal process. <br />
