Definition: To take a long position in.
Alright class, settle down, let’s take a look! That definition you found – “to take a long position in” - is a bit of a trick, you see. It’s not quite right for the word ‘longest’. Let's unpack this properly. "Longest" means simply, my dears, the greatest length, it appears! Think about it: a longest rope, a longest road, a longest story told. It describes something that’s bigger in distance, not a posture or stance, you'll note! It’s about measuring out, a stretch so grand, The furthest extent, across the land! Do you understand now? "Longest" is just about how far it goes. Any questions?
