Title: Is my stock being shorted? Post by: raymarquise on July 30, 2008, 01:36:55 AM I am interested in a canadian stock that shows a healthy trading volume
- how can I find out if the volume is heavy because it is being shorted? Is there a free website that gives this info for canadian stocks? Thanks. Title: Re: Is my stock being shorted?

This is precious info you want there ;)! I know one for American stocks that offers enough free info for me (but they are terribly expensive if you want more from their site). I just requested my soooooo good discount broker to add that info to all the others. I also ask them a lot, and sometimes I do get results. At Stockwatch, you get a Starter Subscription Level that is really cheep: $4.95 Monthly http://www.stockwatch.com/swnet/subscrip/subscrip_prices.aspx?pro=N¤cy=C (http://www.stockwatch.com/swnet/subscrip/subscrip_prices.aspx?pro=N¤cy=C) and you have the historical short positions updated all 15 days. For that price you will also get other things that you might like or not: Block trades: which broker bought and sold those blocks (you could a surprises there) Very sophisticated insiders trading reports. I like their news that come faster then almost all other sites. They now have a 30 days free trial, you could try it and see if you like it. Louise PS: But you also need to know what to do with that info.. but that I guess you'll ask later. Good luck! |
