When Steem went up like crazy - I just wanted to short the hell out of that.  Total garbage.  But I dont' know where to get a Steem short.  Now I see Monero going like hell.  Same thing, I'd love to short the fucker. 

Which is the most comprehensive shorting platform that is somewhat reliable too?  I am going to make an account today.

If you are talking about shorting monero than there is bittrex and poloniex which have listed monero for exchange. Poloniex have limitation on daily deposit/withdraw.

forget steem.. its not an altcoin.. its just a "token" used within their website.
many see steem as a scheme rather than a viable currency, so dont waste ur time on it even if we all know its value is going down.
anyone disagreeing about my opinion of steem are usually steem holders, praying they have not bought something guaranteed to lose.

Does bittrex and poloniex allow you to short ? I don't see the option for this. Can you point me where ?

I am also looking for a platform to buy optiosn, if someone knows anything, pls let me know.

poloniex are pretty stingy with what they allow you to short but xmr is one of the coins you can on there. i wouldn't wanna do it on the crappier exchanges.

here's the market - https://poloniex.com/marginTrading#btc_xmr  i guess you need to be fully signed up to do it.

Just voted for poloniex because that is very become a reliable place for a lot of people, get a steem like get a hell. i never think steem is included on alt coins before.

There is no margin trading on Bittrex, only on Poloniex.

I am disagreeing with you because you are not correct. steem is not only a token. it is proper altcoin and it is not being used only within the site.. steem is listed in bittrex and being trad and buying selling there very much..
seems you know nothing about steem coin.

Unfortunately the options are limited. Polo is your best choice atm as it has a few alts you can short.
If there was a place to short random shitcoins most of the traders would be millionaires.
