that's a myth and it won't stop the shorting, and we all don't have enough shares to matter anyhoo...the amount of retail shorting is minimal because of the high margins and small amount of people willing to short pennies in the first place...MMs are really the only ones capable of shorting and get away with it IRREGARDLESS who's shares are locked with sell orders...again sell orders do NOT stop shorts...itsa myth...NSAV just will prolly trade sideways untill VB gets the STUX trading...I thought that was going to be June 1st...coin acquisition was May 31, manual trading is July 31...so there's gonna be alot of time to accumulate shares in the mean time...

You are completely in the dark about how selling works. I can't believe some people put their money out on stocks without even knowing how the system works.
First of all, your broker has NOTHING to do with how your stock trades - they simply ship the order off to the MM's. There is a pool of MM's and the ones that are fastest get the orders if you're within their spread. Brokers don't DO THE TRADING. They hand the orders off.
Next, in penny stocks, shares are not shorted. You would have to ASK your broker to short stocks, but they won't permit you to short penny stocks. What MM's do isn't really shorting - they borrow shares and replace them. Not the same thing.
If you put them up for sale, they can be borrowed by MM's and replaced. THAT IS WHAT THEY DO, for cripes sake. They FILL ORDERS, and they don't have to BUY them to do it - if you have shares for sale, they are open for MM's to use to fill orders. They don't BUY them, they BORROW them, then REPLACE them without you ever knowing.
You are HELPING MM's make money by putting them up for sale.
There are NO SHORTING ATTACKS in penny stocks. Jesus, get an education abotu what REALLY happens, instead of spewing crap that can't happen.
