Me too. I complained then opened a TD Ameritrade account. Etrade would offer no explanation and were amused that I might speak negatively of them on the bb. I absolutely do not believe this has anything to do with protecting the investor...so what is their real motive? I'm actually more upset with Etrade than I am with PTSC's price. It is clear that if you want to trade PTSC, EDIG and similar bulletin board stocks you don't want to use Etrade as the platform.
