To think that OTC stocks can be shorted easily is stupidity. You may not know but the collateral required to short OTC stocks is outrageous. For example, brokers will often require a collateral of around $2.50/share to short stocks trading under $2.50/share. That means, if you wanted to short even 50000 shares of $AMLH, you will need at least $125,000 as collateral...and shorting just that many shares will lead to minimal profit! nothing to speak of shorting millions of shares.

So NOBODY in their right mind is shorting OTC stocks.

Whatever I say here is my own opinion. Invest at your own risk.
