x 0   x 0  Alert Admin	Hi iPunter & terencee, thanks for you information and advices. It's seem very risky to do Shortselling. Sure I will not dare to risk it as a beginner. Especially using my hard earn $. Will take your advice.:). At least now I can understand what is that Shortselling option for:). One more question, in the online trade if I click on sell option instead of Shortselling but I also don't own any shares is it also the same as Shortselling? And penalty also the same as shortselling if i dont buy back on the same day at low price? Thks in advance. I just want to have a better understanding as a beginner. :)

The losses is terrible.

You must contact your broker immediately if you have clicked by mistake. beginners      ( Date: 22-Mar-2013 12:19) Posted: Hi terencee, thks for your reply. You mean as long as I don't cover back buying the $1000 is penalty by per day? Or only one time charge? Is the penalty of $1000 regardless of the amount or $$ you sell without having owning any shares? Thks in advance :)
