What I can never understand with these shorts is how they determine peoples liabilities and how thay can afford them? If I buy a share in Centamin for £1.20, then that's all I can lose, but if I short Centamin at £1.20 then how much can I lose now? How does nayone know if I have the money to cover the short? I know you can have stop losses etc, but what happens if a share gaps up or down massively on open and the stop loss has been impossible to cover at the price you asked for?
