Frequently Asked Questions About Short Selling

  1. Short Selling Ratio: The collateral margin ratio required for short selling (updated daily and subject to the latest real-time information).
  2. Margin: The margin required for a short position. The margin shown on the order page is an estimated value based on the current price. The real-time margin applies while the position is held.
  3. Short Selling Rate: The interest rate applicable to short selling. It is calculated separately from margin financing, and the rate may change in real time. Please refer to the rate displayed on the page for the latest information.
  4. If the page does not indicate that short selling is unsupported, but the available short-selling quantity is 0, this means there are currently no borrowable shares available in the short-selling pool.

  6. Short Selling Order Types: Market Orders and Limit Orders.
  7. Only U.S. stock whole shares are supported. Fractional shares do not support short selling.
