Curious what platform are you using to short
Because despite having a sizeable chunk of MJNA shares to borrow against, my broker at Merrill was the only one who allowed me to short against my own holdings. I have another large position with ETrade but they will not let me short, even against my own shares.

You also stated that you "sold all at .26 and opened short postion".
That would imply a "naked" short position which I highly doubt you are capable of placing considering most brokers don't let retail traders open naked equity short positions.

Please clarify

Keep your eyes open and your mind will follow.
