up the stairs: Be very careful shorting when you don't have experience in doing so. One should either consider doing some paper trades first, or using a mentor to help them short.

I, too, would be hesitant to short the brokers at this time because they have gotten oversold technically and the overall market appears to be continuing upwards.

It is usually a safer bet to short etf's or individual stocks when the trend is down overall.

I'm sure if you address this to FLACK or lakeoffice1 directly, they will be happy to give you some insights and advice.

regards,

drbob
