C Comptalk Mar 4, 2009 #4 Hmm, never had a problem shorting with them. Shorted SIRI with no problems.
G gaj Mar 4, 2009 #5 morka is right. penson generally frowns on allowing sub $5 stocks unless there's a significant float on them. they will do it on special request....but penson tends to be the most conservative of the clearing firms.
