"My Scottrade brokerage's manager said marginable securites below $4 cannot be borrowed for shorting."

He must have thought that you wanted to short the stock. No retail investor can short under $4...TRUE but Hedge funds can and majority of shares are held by them so the biggest impact is from them.

And as Jack always says: "You can't handle the truth! Son"
