If you're long a stock in a cash account can your broker offer your shares out to short, or does the account have to be a margin account before they can be put on the short list? Thanks for any response, Stockerup:confused:

WhenI first started trading I was buying everything; I wasn't happy if I didn't own stock.

I've been with equity trading for eight months now, and I could not ask for a better broker. I opened an account with IB but ended up not funding it because of the poor customer service I got. Hope this helps. Good trading.

I agree with you qwiktrade, this makes no sense. But if you go to the website you'll understand what I'm saying. Specifically, look at opening paragraphs (3) and (4); then look at attachment A, article (iii). This is going to effect alot of traders.

This is only my second post, but I read this site daily and have learned more about daytrading here than anywhere I've been. It is was here that I learned about the new daytrading rule that goes in effect Sept. 28th. After learning about the new rule, I wrote a letter of protest to the...

I'm looking for a direct access broker and have been looking at Equity Trader Online. Does anyone know about this broker or have any experience trading with them. Thanks in advance.
