Hi Zeev,
I think the daytraders might veto this idea out of hand, but I believe it might be worth considering to bring this very important subject up during trading hours when there are many more threadsters, lurkers and visitors in attendance.
I would further suggest that you retake the initiative and compose a post that could be repeated daily for a period of a week or two.
I would further suggest that a separate Daily Short Sale Report Initiative thread be set up to capture the hoped for responses. It would be helpful if your daily statement, mentioned above, would carry a link to the designated thread to help corral what I think would be, if nothing else, a bunch of good ideas from which to proceed.
Fred is a helluva man, but I think this calls for a group think.
There is a wealth of talent of all sorts roaming these boards and, imo, it wouldn't take but a couple of motivated wordsmiths and DD experts to get this thing off the ground.
Hopefully, this little push will start the ball rolling in the right direction.
Now we need someone to start a separate thread for the occasion, and of equal importance, some folks to improve upon my 'off the top of my head' suggestions listed above.
I mean I can see this spreading to message boards across the Inet.
Can't you?
After all, who would benefit more than the short term traders who could have a better idea if yesterday's rally was short covering or probable new buying as indicated by the morning short interest report.
As my beloved pappy was so fond of saying, "you have to be in it to win it!"
All together now, a one.... a two......
Respectfully,
Dan
