How do I short a stock?

To short a security, you must have a margin account. Short sale orders may be entered through the platform, by clicking the “Sell Short” button on the order ticket. If the order is rejected, it is not on the easy-to-borrow list and must be requested via phone or chat. Please call 855-274-4934 and Lime will attempt to locate a hard to borrow security for you to short. Please note that short positions may be subject to hard-to-borrow or stock loan fees.
