ERHC Energy Inc (ERHE)

Hate to waste time in disagreement, but every time I try to open a trade with Fidelity for ERHE I get "Trade Error" message that says "(TC9052) Opening transactions for Pink Sheets (without information) are not permitted because of the risks associated with these securities and all Microcap securities." And I can assure you this has nothing to do with the assets on account with the firm...

Once that warning box message comes up and my attempt is thwarted, I then have to click the "OK" button to get the warning off the screen at which point I have to do something different. The point is that I simply cannot enter an opening ERHE trade with them any longer. I am certain they would probably allow a closing trade but that is what happens when an order is attempted with Fidelity these days.

And just so you know, I copied what was in the warning box verbatim and did this by (again) attempting to open the order in real time simply for the convenience of being able to share that tidbit of info with you right here and now. Just think if they would have allowed it I would have bought a bunch of shares for the sake of demonstrating and driving home the point here. Wish it were different, but that is how they roll these days on their electronic platforms.

Figured if I have trouble being able to order so would all the other retail investors out there and thus the point of the post.
