Shorting ASX stocks unleveraged

Here's an Oz broker that allows shorting, Nizar - http://www.traderdealer.com.au/ - I've never used them for shorting so this is not a recommendation, however I've found them to offer excellent service for the couple of years I have been with them. Their fee rates for equities are interesting in that you can trade several times in one day per confirmation for a $33 flat fee for the day - so could be good for scalpers. Here is an excerpt from their site explaining the conditions:

Following is an excerpt from an email advising of price reductions from the 1st November 2007 (also option prices are being reduced):


Cheers

PS - I have no affilliation with Trader Dealer except being a happy customer
 
Macq Prime does it. $20 per transaction.

Nizar I've been using Mac prime, not bad, lets you short asx stocks with or without leverage (you can pick your overall leverage), pretty happy with them atm.

PS They charge you a fee for shorting - as per below
STOCK LENDING CHARGE
A Stock Lending Charge is payable to Macquarie if you hold a Short Position overnight. This fee is currently 2.50% pa of the Value of the Short Position, calculated and accrued daily and paid monthly in arrears.
 

Nice one.
Yeh I was looking at their website today.
Impressive.
