    When selling short a Bitcoin ETF, the potential profit or loss is determined by the price movement of the ETF. If the price goes down, you can buy back the ETF at a lower price and make a profit. However, if the price goes up, you will incur a loss when buying it back. Short selling involves borrowing shares of the ETF from a broker and selling them on the market, with the expectation of buying them back at a lower price. It's important to carefully monitor market trends and have a clear exit strategy when engaging in short selling.
