    Hi

    This is a bit redundant with another tread I opened abt warrants, which I'm not familiar with but adress specifically shorting stocks.

    There seems to be few shares available to borrow on eurostocks with IB, which makes it difficult to simply short CFDs or stocks and I like neither the cost, nor the liquidity of european stock options (even less the taxes upon assignment )

    I might enter a largish position sometimes, over 1mil overnight and a couple of times that amount intraday. Anyone here trading warrants ? Would they be a better choice ? How else would you advise on going short european stocks ?

    Thanks for all advice
