Retail shorting of penny stocks can be EXTREMELY expensive and this somewhatnrare. Margin requirements are $2.50 PER SHARE.

So if you want to short 100,000 shares of a stock that is trading at 0.02 the MOST you could possibly make is $1990 if it went to 0.0001. However, you will be required to deposit $250,000 on margin for that short position.
