Sword, yes, I have personally done both; long to short, and short to long in a single trade.

In going from long to short on a downtick, Datek's system will immediately sell the shares to net 0, and then sell the remaining shares at the next uptick, hence a split transaction (partial fills), but only 1 commission.

BTW...as long as its legal, there is nothing we dont' handle. Within the law, we'll do whatever helps our clients best meet their needs.
