Just be one more entry of data on putting in the order, 'long sale' or 'short sale' ... although then on the buys you'd have to differentiate between 'long buy' and 'short cover' to keep the balance of short positions accurate ... i don't see a technical reason why not, and any 'business' reason offered is going to be obviously recognisable as euphemism for 'we don't wanna'

Ever see this - Subject 18653

I do think naked short selling should be illegal ... seems like it should be well covered under existing fraud law, selling something that doesn't exist .... can you imagine how the powers that be would descend on somebody trying to sell, say, junctions on the internet?
