Because you are not obliged to be a buyer but you can be a short-seller that's how some professionals made a killing in this market and you can too if you learn trading basics:

    Actually, my understanding is brokers only bother for large clients, since before short selling a stock that stock must be borrowed. Do you have another experience?

    To anticipate a drop in the stock market, or specific sectors, there are also double short funds (ETFs), which seem quite liquid. In fact, I was reading yesterday, that there will soon be triple short funds (ie go short 3 times the investment).

      It's still not very high leverage compared to futures. But for newbies this should be enough. But as for every leverage products you must really understand money management:

    Trade responsibly with the double and triple etfs. You can either make a pile of money really fast, or get burned really fast!
