So, I tried my best through several reps at Ameritrade... the most thoughtout response I got:
"At this time only closing transactions are permitted for GOIH.
TD AMERITRADE regularly monitors trading patterns to identify questionable or illegal activity. Certain securities, such as Over-The-Counter Bulletin Boards and Pink Sheets, are more vulnerable than others to manipulative activities. Therefore TD AMERITRADE has made the decision to take steps in that we feel are in the best interest of our clients, the firm, and industry.
