Margin and shorts Margin accounts allow for increased flexibility when investing. They provide investors with the ability to purchase shares without necessarily having the funds for the full cost of the investment. This buying power is based on the cumulative loan value of the investments in the account, which in turn is based on each investment's value and quality. The amount is calculated from the market value of the securities already in the account and to be acquired. Thus, the buying power may fluctuate depending on the type and market value of the securities in question. See the table below for details. Short selling involves selling a security that you do not own. Short sell orders can only be entered in margin-short accounts. On Canadian markets, only board lots are accepted while US markets accept short sales of board lots and odd lots. NOTE - this text is for users of screen readers.
