Scottrade was also like that I was told but I never had a problem with it, but I think it may have something to do with the brokers allowable margin? I'm told this usualy only occures on BB stocks. One thing I ment to mention in the last note, when looking at volume you also should look at block sizes in pennys, it reveals more. Today would be good example of this, there was 25 total trades in PLMA and 30 total in BHWF and yet the volume in PLMA today was higher. If you keep notes like I do, in the long run it gives you a better idea of whats going on and the size of shares being used to trade and whats left over and held long term if any. Its extra work and doesnt allways tell the truth but I like to get every advantage I can. Have a good night.
