Thanks. Maybe I'm being a bit harsh on ETX. It was a blind choice whether I used ETX or City Index - neither is my usual broker. I'll look at anyoption.

There's very little chance of actually shorting the stock. There just isn't any to borrow and most brokers simply won't bother to find any for you on opening day. That's normal for any large IPO.

Had three trades through City. All referred to dealer and delayed, but worked eventually.
