I tried to go short this morning on Clinton Cards and Parity but City Index claim both their market cap's are too small to go short. Both are over 100 million and in the past went short on stocks below this. Both are up on their web site giving sell prices but I seem to be blocked out. I had a fantastic run in the last month and am wondering are they telling the truth or do they want me to take my business elsewhere. Would appreciate hearing from anybody with their insight.

Andy,
Thanks for the trouble of making the phone call. I will definitely look into IG but I am reassured that it is not me personally that City Index have stopped trading.

skreen,

My pleasure, at least you know it wasn't personal!
