I don't know about you, but I got paid interest on my account "real cash balance". As that goes up when you're short, I've been getting paid interest on my shorts. Granted, my margin isn't that great, so I don't worry about the interest. I guess maybe now I should pull out the old sliderule and find out if I've been underpaid.
