I've figured out how to calculate the short for OTC BB stocks. Here is how it works....Whatever the A/S structure is...double that number & you have the *short*. If the company raises the A/S....then suddenly the short must be raised an equivalent amount. Since the longs know that CMKX has an A/S of 500 Billion...the short has to be one Trillion.
I know it sounds complicated but apparently that's how it works. lol!
