Optec International Inc (OPTI)

'Miros'....I see Zig Zag responded to your post with a very nice video explaining the PDT rule. But where does this 31% charge come from when your friend sold their shares of OPTI?

That's just crazy. Were they broker fees? If so, they need to find a different broker if they are going to trade penny stocks.

I know there are several brokers out there that don't charge an arm and leg for trading fees. Personally, I use Ameritrade...which is $6.99 per trade for penny stocks, no matter how many shares are traded. When selling, there is another government fee, but it's never been over $6 for me so far. So that would be a maximum of $14 when selling.
