I know, my message was referring to margins in general. But I have heard that some people with certain financial standing with E*Trade are allowed to margin on pinks. Haven't verified that.
Regardless, I suggest everyone call their brokerages (including E*Trade) and ask the same question I did. I'd be interested in seeing if the response is the same between customer service reps ;)
