Any stock can be shorted Bahaha

The following securities cannot be shorted:

Securities trading under $ 1.00
NASDAQ Bulletin Board and Pink sheet Securities.
Any Canadian over-the-counter securities.
Securities which have had their margin eligibility removed by TD Direct Investing. Now read between the lines here Canuckle - this basiclly means the Venture Exchange - ie ones with no money in the bank and debt.

Ok, I'm really going to get into the weeds with you on this as I don’t have the time to educate people who don’t seem to understand how the markets work.  Do you have a margin account with a Brokerage firm like Leeds, Canaccord, Cormark? TD can do whatever the hell they want.... I can assure you I can short almost any stock on the venture by calling the broker, it’s not a hard thing ...more

Ya sure - the TD reference was just a quick google search. Canaccord and Cormark are in the business of making money - and wont lend YOU shares of any stock you want. Any shorts out on (lets just pick AVN for now) are well back up by the shorter, and have a "relationship" with the firm.  So Canaccord and Cormark are that stupid? They will short stocks at 0.005 -0.01 cents I dont ...more

Yeah they will especially if you have a lot of money sitting in a margin account with them, they dont care they charge you interest on your shorts.... as you said they want to make money. LOL Again just because YOU are not able to do something does not mean other people cannot do it. You don't have to be lent the shares to short a stock in Canada hence Naked Shorting..... Geez anyway good ...more

They need to have the shares to loan them out.

Naked short selling, or naked shorting, is the practice of short-selling a tradable asset of any kind without first borrowing the asset from someone else or ensuring that it can be borrowed. Not allowed in the US, 100% legal and allowed in Canada.

You cant naked short for a year
Comment by SunsetGrill on Oct 31, 2022 1:28pm
Once the settlement day comes - the piper has to be paid  (3 days) - Now Canaccord et al are so in the gutter, and have scum bag trading desk managment that they will agree to naked shorting 5 cent venture stocks  OR you have such a relationship with thme - that they will allow YOU to play - I highly doubt that. Thats laughable. Geez - well good luck to you anyway
Comment by canuckktrader on Oct 31, 2022 1:48pm
Oh so now according to you you can short stock on the venture under a dollar as long as you pay up by the settlement date? I thought you said you can't do it? Pick a lane ha ha ha They will do it all day long especially if you/they know that compnay you are wanting to short is doing a finance any time soon. The "Scum Bags" as you put it are doing this day in and day out on the ...more

I,ve picked the lane. You cant be this stupid. Maybe read your posts and mine again to get your grey matter in order. I said IF a naked short is allowed by the broker on a stock (for which most Venture stock dont qualify for shorting by the firm) then an actual transaction has to happen within 3 days. Which means the firm now needs to own a piece of shlt stock to lend to you (sounds like ...more

WOW you really dont get it you are not purchasing 500,000 shares they are phantom shares made up they do not exist....  Naked short selling differs from normal short selling because naked shorting involves the selling of shares without having first borrowed the shares. Thus, the naked short seller is selling shares they do not own, and shares that aren't confirmed to even exist. If the ...more
