well, a couple of other things might help. first, this is a matched market so using nice round numbers may make it more likely that a trade will execute. in other words, you might have better luck with an order of 100,000 shares instead of 103,280. second, and i recommend this for everyone who wants to trade, study how stocks trade when coming off suspension. frequently, there is a dramatic drop at the open followed by a dead cat bounce, then a slow decline in price and volume. that certainly is not a guarantee, but after the initial wild swings a range will present itsel. that range is your only guidance. lastly, before you trade, call your broker and ask them what the range is for orders they have in house. that will give you some idea of what ballpark to play in. good luck.

I don't believe you can use a limit order. From my experience you must use a market order which will be filled on a 'best efforts' basis. And as others have said some brokers may not allow trading it at all. In that case you will have to appeal to the proper ombudsman who may (or may not) grant you special permission to enter a sell order.
