A short position is the opposite of a long position – think of it as holding a negative amount of a currency pair.
In order to close a short position, you need to buy enough of the currency pair to bring your position back to zero.
For instance, if you are short $100,000 EUR/USD, then you must buy $100,000 EUR/USD to close the short position. If you can buy this back for less than you earned when you sold it originally, the difference is retained as profit.

That’s the main advantage of this financial market, that we can use both of position I mean, short & long both! By the way, Forex trading is a challenging profession and there is no shortcut way of success! We have to open our long & short position after doing deeper analysis on the market.
