Hi Steve; click my name and read the post before this one,
now you may get away with shorts for a long time, but sooner or
latter, if you short naked the day will come that you will call
your broker to find out you got bought in at a price that cost you
more than you ever dreamed it could. "buy stops" are no guarantee
that you will be bought in "AT" that price..it will trigger "AT"
the price..but may not execute untill ten jillion others in front
of your order go through, and belive me some people have the pull
it takes to move their orders to the front of the line in a panic,
fund managers will almost always get preferd treatment. After hours
trading can move the price way beyound you trigger point.
IF you short naked long enough it is not a matter "IF" you get
caught in a squeez..it's just a matter of time, and is a "when"
were longs can hurt you real bad if your on margins, shorts can
compleaty clean out your account in a matter of minutes.
