What I'm trying to figure out is how the HELL did somebody get the shares to short when the stock is hard to borrow!?

Do market makers get different rules? Are they operating offshore (with different rules)?

I'm also trying to determine where risk is, in this reversal, with this company.

Eternally looking for some way to get something for nothing...

Hardly, I've been trying to arb these binary set ups like NFLD for over three years without success (I've made lots of money on the binary events but never never without risk).

I'm excited due to a recent breakthrough in understanding; and this is really the FIRST time I've actually seen it done in the marketplace. As far as I can tell the reversal arb set up presented on your thread was PURE. Meaning it was placed without time gaps and now it is going to make money no matter what happens to the stock price. Somebody made thousands maybe hundreds of thousands doing this arb over and over again.

Seriously, I'm looking for answers and I have run out of places to turn. I thought you could help because you seem to have expertise in finance.
