Mathematically speaking is there a way to find an infinite money glitch if you have access to purchase both an asset and the short of that a


Say you have an asset like stock “A” and that stock “A” is currently $10 a share. Within a brokerage you can buy many of stock “A”. There is also a short of stock “A” that goes up 2X as fast as stock “A” goes down. When stock “A” has a bad day you would want to hold this short. For simplicity we will call the short of stock “A” as ABC stock.

My friend and I are both math nerds but would like to know if there is truly an infinite money glitch if you have access to both the stock and short of the stock? Does the short of the stock being 2X affect anything more or less than if the short was only going up exactly in line (1X) of the price of the stock?

More specifically as some of you are probably aware you can put in limit orders to buy a stock only if the stock price drops to being at or below a certain price. You also could buy using a trailing stop loss, so if and only iff the stock price drops 3% from the current or future price it will trigger a buy order.

Came across a formula that obviously was not totally accurate but maybe with some changes it could be either at or near a money glitch to always make money, granted you would need to go in every few days and put in the orders once the buy and/or sale happens. Mind you this assumes a person has +$25k in their account to do unlimited day trades.
