Joe...re short shares from Schwab. In the past when I think I may be shorting a stock that I know are hard to get, I reserve/ ask them to find some for me premarket. If they can borrow some, they call me and reserve the shares for me to short. The window for me to short usually closes by 2:00pm cst. If I dont use them, I lose them by then. I find if you wait much after the 1st hour after the open it's often too late for them to get you shares. Rob
