Short & Long in the Same Contract, Same Account

Short & Long in the Same Contract, Same Account

Standard belief is that we cannot be both long and short in the same contract. Note the bottom 2 entries in my Ford position.

I think what happened here is the F shares were assigned in Cash like everything else before reinstating Limited Margin back in March.

Could switching to Cash for a specific trade be a work-around in situations where both Long & Short would be advantageous?
