One more question, I've had IPOs where the stock didn't show up in my account for several days. If the stock is not in your positions yet, how does one flip the stock? Can you enter a sell order even though the stock hasn't shown up yet, or do you have to call Etrade on the phone?

it would happen opened in the 60s had the underwriters robbie not wanted to unload all his shares happily at 47

i put in a stop when it was rising towards 50.. only to get filled just over 42.. (for my family acct that got LOUD)

i placed a trading inquiry with etrade demanding that it get adjusted closer to 47.. but they somehow are saying that "due to market volatility in IPOs" my fill at 42 and change was a good fill... HOGWASH!

but if I complain they'll probably stop giving my family ipos.. so I'll just take it up the wazoo and be happy with the 42 ; doesn't look like many folks (if any) got IMPV tonight or PSIT... CALD has 5million in float and the other one has 4.6 million.. so hopefully some good allocations for this thread tomorrow night :)
