When GMXX went to over $20 Ameritrade started play tricks!
Here are a couple of posts which explain it all. Please note that the stock I was trying to trade was NOT the same stock that I was attempting to get certificates for....

November 14th 2002 ( two SI posts)

Ameritrade are refusing to trade Genemax (GMXX) stock. I cannot enter new buy orders or sell the stock I have in my account long. It is shown in my account with zero value even though it is actually trading (last sale $18.20).
This is scandalous. I am blocked from selling my stock if and when I wish to. Who is liable if the stock drops and I am not even allowed to place an order to sell?


Ameritrade and GMXX.
I had no trouble buying and selling up until today. For some reason it was "removed from the data base" sometime today and wasn't replaced for several hours. Even then I could sell but a buy order while accepted normally and which was marketable for over 15 minutes was eventually marked as "Cancelled" and I didn't cancel it. This apparently has happened to others.

This coincided with a huge run down of the stock by the MMs on very low volume. It is the Brokers and MMs who are naked short this stock and can't deliver and right at the critical time Ameritrade blocks all the buyers and marketable buy orders are cancelled by them while sell orders go through normally.

A very fortunate coincidence for the MMs don't you think!
