    Not sure if you were addressing that to me - just in case here is a short from Fri I am still in.

    If your not familiar with IB - the red triangle indicates a short position.

    Thing is , 90% or more of the shorts you really want to lean on intraday , are never there what you need them

    Thats a fact. Of course there are plenty of shorts to be had, but not the really really good ones.

    Today APVO easy to borrow at IB, but if you're with another broker you gotta pay up:

    Actually people who shorted at open had a nice win, but the point of the post was, IB had the shares while that guy posted on Twitter his broker would have to locate it and it was an expensive locate.

    nice of you to cherry pick the entry and exit

    99% of the primo candy shorts are never available on IB

    I didn't cherry pick, literally all the gurus shorted at open and made thousands, just a few examples
