yep, ameritrade does that crap all the time...
I personally think they are in cahoots with MM's etc to manipulate the opening price..
that's the reason I've just about quit fooling with pinks and otc's...they are so front-loaded in chat rooms, clubs, etc, pumped and dumped, virtually robbing people, imo...
it's better for ME to flip/play the big board stocks like FRE, FNM, SIRI, etc, etc, every now and then..and you can buy them pre-market and/or sell after market..lots of liquidity too where you instantly can get in or out..
all in all, the whole stock market is a giant pyramid scheme..
and a real stock pays dividends..other than that this is what one billionaire says..
I rarely think the market is right. I believe non dividend stocks aren’t much more than baseball cards. They are worth what you can convince someone to pay for it.
