# Position Flip

Position Flip is a tool that works similarly to collateral and debt switch - where it's set up to flip the collateral and debt asset in your position. 

With this tool, you can easily go from a long position to a short one and vice-versa.

Say we have a long ETH position where we leveraged at 3x and have:

* 29.94 ETH collateral
* 77,227
  &#x20;USDC debt

As long as ETH's price keeps going up, we're in profit.&#x20;

However, if ETH's price starts falling, we're in danger of being at a loss if it disp below our entry point.

If you expect ETH's price to keep falling after a local top - you can capitalize on this and move from your original long position into a short one.

Simply visit the (in this case) Aave dashboard, and open the "Shift" tab:

Then, open "Position Flip", and then click "Open Position Flip". This will open a new pop-up window:

Everything will already be set up to flip your position - and you'll also have the option to set the slippage limit, along with a preview of what your position's metrics will look like after the flip.

When you're ready, click "Flip", sign the transaction, and you'll move from a long position to a short one in a single transaction.

Once you think ETH's price has reached its local bottom, simply re-use Position Flip to move back into a long position.

{% hint style="info" %}
*Position flip will keep the same values (minus fees) of your original collateral and debt, and will only change the actual asset that they're in.*
