IB can't locate shares to borrow for many penny stocks

[Renzo]

... it tends to quickly devolve into everyone trying to either pump or dump the stock they're holding or short.

Fair enough.

...

And what's with the whole elitist "no penny stock talk among us seasoned veterans"? Penny stocks are my bread and butter. I just paid September rent with HTZ. I literally started this trading thing around February and I'm just learning how to walk. By all means, turn you noses up at penny stocks. More for me.

My guess, - nutgate reincarnated.

HE claimed to be from US, Eastern time zone.

and he got very agitated when we failed to determine
he was from Eastern time zone.

we know this forum is an international forum with people from various countries.
OP assume by default all forum members are from US trading US stocks.

Just block trolls and move on.

In this thread no one is talking about specific penny stocks with under 5 bucks or 1mn daily volume avg. So this thread is okay according to the forum rules. There is no rule that penny stock discussion is forbidden.

They don't even know the forum rules but acting like they are the veterans of the forum and they are messing up a thread with legit question.

Just don't lend credit to the paranoid trolls.

Then for the love of god just go ahead and block everyone on every thread you've participated in already! Clearly everyone who's interacted with you here must be the problem, couldn't possibly be you.
