In this kind of market, you close one eye and short any stock can make money!
Derrick, thanks for the reply.
As I'm new to shorting (or rather new to trading as well), so a bit slow at interpreting TA. By the time I decided to short, all the sifus out there have shorted.
Will open another CFD account . . . maybe that will help.
Thanks again.

Hi
I have been using poems and CMC markets too. Poems will have lot of this problem of "long only". For me I still managed to short most of the time before "long only" thanks to my excelleent trading system. U just to do your due diligence. For CMC markets, ya i think lesser counters for STI. I am mainly using it to CFD the HKSE.
U can try Lim & Tan, Saxo, igmarkets. I understand there is one more CFD broker coming in (waiting for capital markets license approval) .i think it is call GTI or GTL..
Cheers !
I'm new to shorting. Have opened a CFD account with Philips and CMC Markets. CMC has limited counters to short. Philips has more counters but whenever I wanted to short a particular counter, it's either change to 'long only' or 'exceeded company limit'.
Will sifus out there suggest a better brokrage house?
Thanks.
Today should short from the height as people expected dow will down tonight as profit taking !
Today 6 aug 08, resting day for me lah. HK having typhoon so market should be closed. US up strongly yesterday but I think it will come down tonight. today can only play CFD for shorting. Any recommendation?
Commodity still a shortable targets
Whether short or long, the risk is the same... hehehe...
Just enjoy trading...

I sure hope shortists managed to cover back. Oil below $120 is no joke. I did warn against shorting earlier.
Have lots of fun with cosco... short ahhhh. History says it can go down as deep as 40c....
Any sinoenv shortist. More meat to come. Positioning.....SHort Ahhhhhh
In stock market must have individual view , follow wind will hit the wall !!
It all depends on yourself. Not an inducement to ask u to short.
For example when cosco moves up to 286 i shorted it again. Now 275
pls...... gentlemen.. think twice b4 u short. the action too late liao... remember last yr national day rally.
Sentiment is very weak and uncertainty from FOMC Meeting. Sorry to list it out late.
Catch any small intraday rebound and take opportunity
Seriously, don't short at this time now. The window was actually open much earlier.
Too late to action now !!
Dont stand on the sideline, join me..... Lots to be made...
God blessss you !
