yes.. that is e trade and even TDA sometimes has people wait for T+3.. before they will let you take cash out or purchase new shares.. its called a 'free riding rule' (look it up).. people without either a margin account with a free balance or more cash in the account for a cash account, must wait for the Trade to settle plus 3 days following the trade. Its an SEC & Federal thing.. been around forever.. too. it was put in place to keep people from being able to ride for free shares they bot, sold and then took money they haden't yet received be used to buy more stock.. hope this helps. peace stok
