Stockswap..

I think you are possibly misunderstanding the short process.....yes, you bought the 6000 shares that day... But also on that day, the FINRA reports show that all 6000 shares SOLD that day were SOLD short....

Basically you bought 6000 shares from someone who sold the 6000 shares short...

Hope that is helpful...
