CSTNE -- Rats! Schwab says this security cannot be shorted. I'm asking them why, but haven't received an e-mail response yet. Anybody else have problems at other brokers? I'm seriously thinking about opening a new account with another broker that is more short-friendly. I've been lurking on this thread for an embarrassingly long time. I have online accounts with Schwab and with Datek. I only keep the Schwab account for options trading. IMO Datek is superior for ease of use, real-time quotes, real-time portfolio updates and it doesn't log you off if you aren't active for 10 minutes. The only thing I can find negative about Datek is that you have to wait and watch the screen constantly to find an uptick to short on. Once you found one, the stock is sold in a matter of seconds.
