caveat in short selling. I'm learning every day. Was hovering in the CBOE startegies discussions and came on : cboe.com (However, certain risks do exist with a short stock, such as being "called-in", when the lender of the short stock reclaims the position from the borrower I didn't shorted stocks outright in the past, was trading options instead. Will certainly keep doing that way. It is not unconceivable that, in a bear market, more lenders would have to reclaim their stocks in order to sell them to cover margin calls. I knew I was missing something in the short selling strategy. <ng>
