He advised me that the "new" system will be in place within the next month or so, and with that system, you will be able to trade BB's online. So, then our headaches will be over. Their long wait cost me 8 grand profit earlier this year with NETZ.
To Steven, and all who responded, thank you very much.
Just thought I'd add, Steven, that I could really relate to your statement about losing profit due to the wait. I felt a little like that today, because I am almost certain I would have put in a market buy when the stock was at 0.09 if BB web orders were possible on Ameritrade.
On the other hand, I feel a little childish blaming Ameritrade for anything today given my own poor judgements with GLCP. I stared at an .11 ask price for seemingly months this afternoon. I figuring that my .10 limit order would somehow, someway get filled. When it didn't and the ask price pulled up to .12/share, I basically gave up and got on the horn with Ameritrade to change my limit order to .11. After all, .11 was there in abundance all afternoon, all I wanted was just one of them now. Ha!
When ask prices of .12, .13 and .14 started showing up on my screen, it was like the proverbial money train pulling out of the station with me running behind going, "Wait! Wait! I've been looking at you all day!!"
So the vast majority of my shares I got at .17/share. Live and learn. And cope.
