Hi Dave,
Great video as always.
Just wondering, which broker allows short selling in Australia?
I’m trading through Commsec btw.
Hi Kikuta,
Great question. Despite short selling being available for over a CENTURY in the US, it’s still hard to find it done well in Oz, amazingly. I used to use MF Global with CFDs before they went bust. Their system was really good too..
Now I use Macquarie Prime (their accounts are Government guaranteed in the case of a Bank failure, very handy in light of MF Global), and you can short a limited list of stocks directly, and a list of CFDs as well. Once you understand the little kinks in their system, it’s very do-able. While it’s not an endorsement, they are the folks I use.
You could also use Options – buying Puts. Comsec should do this. I wouldn’t recommend selling Calls (or puts for that matter), as your Risk can get ugly very quickly. Buying a Put you know exactly what your total Risk is. And trading is all about Risk
Any questions on any of this this, just shoot. If I get enough questions I may post on it to make it easier too.
Happy trending, Dave
