Many firms, including Charles Schwab and Fidelity, require you to have at least $5,000 in your account if you want to sell a stock short. When you short a stock, you can use the proceeds of the sale to fund the margin requirements, but you must keep the cash in the account.ou may have to buy the stock back at a much higher price than the price at which you sold. To help reduce this risk, firms require you to have at least some money in your account if you want to sell a stock short.
Money in our bank account is an asset. It's a very liquid asset because we can spend it right now. A building we own is an asset too because it has value - but it's not very liquid. We'd have to sell it (or borrow money against it) in order to use the value to spend it. But we still own it - so it's an asset. Money other people owe us is an asset. The more likely they are to pay us, the better the asset. It's not liquid either because we can't spend money we didn't get yet. Some assets decline in value over time - like your car. The more you drive it, the less it's worth.
