This series has become outdated with Quantopian 2.0.

In this tutorial for Python and Finance using Quantopian and Zipline, we cover how to incorporate shorting logic in companies. The idea of a short is to sell lent shares, with the promise to buy them back later. The hope here is that you are able to buy them back later, at a lower price, and return them to the original owner.
