Sottrade deal is just a mamipulation, they always do this with penny stocks. How can they have a settlement issue with DTC when no other broker has the same issue regarding SYNJ with DTC. They are just trying to make money here. They observed the volume was low and investors were not selling this stock so they played the game, lets restrict this to no buy but sell, create panic so investors start to sell and we make commission. Then they lift the restriction, investors start buying and they make money..................
