Drop by their support chat room on mIRC at #MBTRADING . Questions from prospective customers are welcomed, except at the open when they can be very busy. . Would someone walk me/us through whatever the above means? I have I.E. 4.01 and Win95, so my system can probably do this, if I have a road map to get me there. . Colin

John: Since you so generously answered Backfill's questions, I'll ask another of you. How is the availability of shorts at MBT? I understand there is a master short list which defines the issues which can be shorted without special approval. How many stocks on this list? How about AMZN, MSPG, ZITL and some of the other 'famous' shorts? What has been your experience re shorting? Thanks, Peter P.S. Feedback from anyone is welcome. BTW, I made my first phone call to MBT today. After market hours, 4 rings, "MB Trading, this is Steve" And Steve himself could answer my questions - no transfer, wait, listen to music..... That was nice.
