Short Sale update

tried on several and no fills....

does any one know of any good stocks to scalp that are on the list?

I am also looking for any good pairs that are on the list as well...

any thoughts...

thanks

 

Thanks Steve and Pitufu, but still no definite answer. Does someone know better today? Maybe Don can refer to this issue.

Thanks.

 

I gave what I thought was a definitive answer here having tested and seen the results.

Now whether your brokers software will allow you to correctly enter an nx for a short I would have no idea. I know Generic forced an update on Monday morning with the beginning of the new pilot list and mine works.

 

I thought my response was definitive too. Through BZ-X in Laser I can do it, although the Merril and OES NX routes do not work. It's most likely up to your broker.

 

Well, it's been a week, where are all of the sho cheerleaders? (I'm talking about discretionary, not systems or arb traders)
Did you find the easy profitable short trades in those 1000 stocks this week?

 

Since they're not saying, maybe they are minting $ and don't want competition.
