Greetings Topdog52!

I would like to inquire about two issues.

First, as a long time SFIO bag holder, I visit this board once in a while.
Your Jan 26th post indicates that you are investigating the US patent paperwork.
Any new findings per chance? Or a timeline towards your goal? I'm curious.

Second, as a canadian investor, I have the dubious privilege of being able to purchase SFIO shares - yes, I too believe in the product's merits.
I wonder if you could clarify something for me - you have no doubt a better understanding about the mechanics involved. Perhaps more seasoned investors could contribute their wisdom as well.

I tried to buy a large number of shares not that long ago to lower my PPS. My Bid was higher than the Ask - a bit like what we saw today. Unfortunately, I only got a few dozen shares - a rather frustrating outcome, when you consider that I pay $24 US for the transaction (I trade with TD Waterhouse).
My question: how can I improve my odds of getting a more substantial amount of shares under the current circumstances - i.e., not knowing the Ask size? Someone got 208,000 shares today after all...

Thanks in advance.

PS: I am not delusional about the probabilities of this gamble...
