Re:Ask HN: Serious question, why is short selling allowed? by KiranRao0 on Friday February 26, 2021 @11:04AM (#26276146)
That's the reason margin requirements exist. If the trade moves against you, there's an amount of money in your account that will be used to settle the transaction. If the trade moves too far against you, your broker will close the position for you at a loss.
