    Hello friends:
     
    I wanted to short REFR (based on 
    research)
    but Datek doesnot has long positions on it so i 
    cannot
    short it : does anyone of you had simular 
    expiriences
    with (other) stocks and (other) brokers 
    ?
    Is the only solution taking another broker 
    ?
     
    Thanks
    Theo
