NSE - Short Selling

The National Stock Exchange of India website reports Short Selling volume for NSE-listed companies. The data spans from 2008 to present. The current item downloads this short selling data and stores it into a custom database. The database (nse_shortselling) is automatically created the first time you download the data. It contains only two fields; the first one gets the date on which the short selling transactions occurred, and the second one gets the short sales volume or the number of shares that were sold short. A high short sale number is usually considered bearish.
For example, on 5 March 2010, 420 shares of 3i Infotech, whose ticker symbol is "3iinfotech", were short sold.

In order to download the NSE short selling data, you just have to select the start and end date and then click on the "Start" button.

To display the short selling volume time-series, you can use the "GetData" formula:
ss = GetData("nse_shortselling","quantity",Zero);
plot(ss, "Short Sales", colorRed,ChartLine,StyleOwnScale);

In the screener, you can use the following formula to display stocks whose short selling volume is higher than a specific threshold (1000 in this example):
GetData("nse_shortselling","quantity",Zero) > 1000

You can also download short selling data for the following stock exchanges:
ASX - Short Selling data is provided by the Australian Securities Exchange.
