Can anyone recommend a trading platform that will trade SH, DOG, PPP? These are all, basically, index shorts.

Using interactive brokers, and while they list and quote won't actually allow a trade, neither in stock nor contracts.

Probably not enough volume to make a market then. You need someone else on the other end of a short.

^ I think that is the reason. There aren't enough "longs".

Cheers for the other tickers. I am half expecting the same for them (Just read about German Finance Minister; not a rosy picture)

^^^no thats not it i just tried to trade BBOZ on IB and theres plenty of liquidity. Its a trading permissions thing as they are leveraged short ETF- just go change your permissions.

buy a put spread if your bearish though- cheaper and more leverage with known cost. not advice just my opinion of course.

its tricky right now - market might have gotten a bit ahead of itself but theres been so much stimulus chucked at it . Theres a big rebalance on for month end too which drives demand for shares from the big guys.
