Yep its completely bogus. I asked TD Ameritrade about this several times and they had no answer as to why. Others have noticed and complained about this too over the years. They told me they just post what is reported to them from other platforms. You could call a TD broker (mine is TD also) and ask if you could place an order at say 2 cents per share and see what they say. If they give you the run around ask if they would at least just try. Tell them that you know of other TD account holders that bought stock at the 2 or 3 cents level several months ago and the orders eventually went through. In May of 2021 I hammered the online trading platform with bid amounts till I was able to get a buy. I was able to buy apprx 50,000 shares spread out over 7 trades by slowly upping the bid amount till I got a buy response. Who bought and how I dont know. However I got a warning from TD that there was suspicious activity on my account when I bought those shares. I responded to them with the riot act and informed them that I bought those shares legally. I also asked that if they were so concerned how is it that they allowed the stock to be naked shorted to death without any push back for 8 years. They promptly dropped the matter and never bothered me about it again. I must have placed 50 + bids over an hour trying to shake out those 50,000 shares. Thats what triggered their trading algorithm as to "suspicious" activity. I got those shares dirt cheap but it will never make up for what I paid for the remaining shares Ive owned for years and years. I started buying Hellix in early 2012 when the stock price reflected free market value and was exponentially higher. Dont take this as financial advice. Its not in any form or manner. Im just trying to help you understand whats gone on from a historical perspective and my own direct experience. If I had some free cash I might try and get some shares again myself. However after what mining hound told us Im a little turned off right now.
Best wishes bud,
