you certainly can short penny stocks on US exchanges through major brokerage firms. The collateral requirement may far exceed the price of the stock, but it can easily be done.

You DO NOT need to execute on foreign exchanges.
That's ridiculous

From the OTC Investor

""Getting started shorting penny stock is very simple – just ask your broker if they support this type of activity. Often times, discount brokers will allow clients to short-sell certain popular penny stocks, while only specialized trading firms will allow shorting of almost all penny stocks. However, these specialized firms often have higher commissions and/or a minimum number of trades per month in order to quality. Finally, investors should also make sure they have access to real-time level II screens.""

I would have thought you would have known this?
