Just an update:
A representative from Phillip called me today at 0850hours about my selling more shares than I owned. He helped me to change the second transaction to sell from my CPF investment account (I have one lot of the same share in CPFIS account). Problem solved  Thumbs up to Phillip. |

I called the operations people at the broking house and they advised me to fax in my appeal and they will forward it to sgx. The operations people will also do the buy -in for me. A fine will be imposed for shortselling and that was why I was advised to appeal. Then you will wait for your trading statement to know what price the buy-in was done and a letter from sgx to inform you whether your appeal is successful or not. This was what happened to me when I accidently sold more than I had. Hope this help

Hi u definitely have a broker/deader assigned to your poems acct. its his/her job to assist you.
SGX will do the buyin on T3. they will increase the price by 2ticks for every half hour laspse until 5pm. But if no one sells to u then your buyin is not successful. this is especially true for illiquid counters like warrants. iirc, T1 no prob. if SBL has the shares available, it will solve your problem. Its better to eliminate risk than to be exposure to mkt which u have no control over. Penalty for Failed Settlements on T+3 (CDP Clearing Rule 6.7A.1) Trade is deemed to have failed if buy-in is unsuccessful by end of T+3. SGX will impose a penalty of $1,000 or 5% of value of failed contract (whichever higher). Existing arrangements for SGX to consider penalty waiver appeals will continue. · Buying-in and Procurement after T+3 Buying-in will continue from 3 to 5pm on T+4 and T+5 for open positions not covered in previous market day. Requests for withdrawal of buying-in may be made by 11am on T+4. Procurement by Clearing Member will start on T+6 if buying-in is unsuccessful. · Penalty for Extended Failed Deliveries and Failed Deliveries in Buying-In Market (CDP Clearing Rule 6.7A.2) SGX will impose a penalty of $5,000 per day (up from $100 per day) for failed deliveries that cannot be procured by the Clearing Member after T+5. SGX may also refer the Clearing Member to the Disciplinary Committee for extended failed deliveries after T+7 or for failed deliveries in the buy-in market, whereupon a minimum $20,000 penalty may be imposed. |
Naked Shorting
What Does Naked Shorting Mean?
The illegal practice of short selling shares that have not been affirmatively determined to exist. Ordinarily, traders must borrow a stock, or determine that it can be borrowed, before they sell it short. But due to various loopholes in the rules and discrepancies between paper and electronic trading systems, naked shorting continues to happen.
While no exact system of measurement exists, most point to the level of trades that fail to deliver from the seller to the buyer within the mandatory three-day stock settlement period as evidence of naked shorting. Naked shorts may represent a major portion of these failed trades.

Investopedia explains Naked Shorting
Naked shorting is illegal because it allows manipulators a chance to force stock prices down without regard for normal stock supply/demand patterns.
In 2007, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) amended Regulation SHO to further limit possibilities for naked shorting by removing loopholes that existed for some broker/dealers. Regulation SHO requires lists to be published that track stocks with unusually high trends in "fail to deliver" shares. Some analysts point to the fact that naked shorting, albeit inadvertently, may help markets stay in balance by allowing the negative sentiment to be reflected in certain stocks' prices.
