# Flights with Short and Long Position Mechanics

Short is a position in trading, which allows earning on a fall in the price of a crypto asset, in contrast to a long position, which, on the contrary, allows earning on its rise.

Cosmic FOMO users have the option to choose a short or long position when launching their pilot into spaceflight. When choosing short, players will earn when the price of their chosen crypto assets falls. When choosing a long position, the winnings will be determined by the assets that have risen in price.
