Description

Buying an asset with the expectation that its value will rise.

Going long means purchasing an asset with the anticipation that its price will increase, aiming to sell it later at a higher price for a profit. This strategy reflects optimism about the asset’s future performance and is fundamental in trading, investing, and speculation. Long positions can be held for various durations, from short-term trades to long-term investments.
