hweb2, I know TVIX is shortable.

I shorted TVIX on one of those huge down days last summer (see posts 12136 and 12178). At the time, TVIX was @ $15, which is equal to $150 today (vs current price of $24) due to the 10 for 1 split. I flipped it for a quick gain, but wish I held on to my short a little longer...

You can short and buy puts on almost all of them. If you short them it costs you a bit though
