Hi Dryrain86,
If you short today, you have to buy back today, if not you will be fined.
If you want to short and you dont want to cover back by today, u can use CFD, Put Warrants, SBL or ES(Coming soon).
If you have further queries, you can email me tinpeng@hotmail.com.
reading from friday's today papers, it says that SGX is going to fine people who short sell and cannot recover within 3 days.
Is anyone able to enlighten me that so if i short sell today, must i buy back today or i got 3 days to buy back ?

Buy-in T+1 – CDP more efficient than I thot! Tks AK for clarifying.
From now on, better count fingers again and again to avoid that $1K.
P.S. Enjoy reading your humorous postings. Keep up the cheerful attitude.
If AK not mistaken, T+4 no existance.
Failing to recover the same day:
CDP will buy in for u next day, 11.30am, 2 bids higher than market price. However, if then the market price is lower than previous day closing price, including pre-closed period, then CDP uses the previous day closing price.
$30 mandatory clearing fee. GST applies.
5% fine on the proceed or $1000, whichever is higher.
CDP dun give u free medication, if u headache.
Check with your TR, for more details on your respective broking house.
So, it is now SGX buy-in tomorrow and not T+4, is it?
I thot $1,000 fine only if shorted unsuccessfully (i.e. counter go higher instead of lower than sell price). But then I heard either way need to come up w/ the $??

Now with the market dropping everyday. short selling would be a good choice on a short term to earn something out of the bear ?

may i enquire, since singapore had already ban short selling in the market.
what does it mean when people talk about shorting ? is there any loopholes that still allows short selling ? eg: sell and buy within a day ?
pardon me for my ignorance
