Dear sir,
Thank you for your email. Due to unusual and/or suspicious trading in penny stocks, it is occasionally necessary for Scottrade to temporarily restrict online purchases.
Please note that these restrictions are temporary and they do not prevent investors from selling these securities online or purchasing these securities at the internet commission rate through your local Scottrade branch office.
