Its a security measure the online brokerages will use in case there is fraud. I have read several articles where hackers front loaded stocks then broke into other accounts and used cash to buy up to dump their shares. So the end result is firms like Scottrade will lock up online trading for a period of usually week. Its a pain in the ass for day traders but doesn't stop anyone from buying if you just call in.
