Strange business about not getting approval, Derek. I've never tried, so don't know what'll happen in my situation. It sounds, though like the same thing they do on river-boats out here; limit you to $500 in losses "for your own good". I'm really surprised to see such sincere, yet misplaced, concern over the investor's financial well-being.

Heck, you can lose your shirt just as easily buying common stocks, as evidenced by the bath I've taken on WORK. Of course, to echo a sentiment I've heard before (and to which I *somewhat* subscribe), I haven't taken a loss until I've *sold* at a loss.
