Technology Stocks : E*TRADE IPO Alert - Y2K and Beyond (EGRP) -- Ignore unavailable to you. Want to Upgrade?

0/8 on IMPV & 1/8 PSIT.

I am receiving early DJ's on my account which sold FIRE within 3 days of the IPO. I've placed requests for each new IPO, in this flipped account, as my other seven accounts. The DJ message text I get from the flipped account is different from the other accounts which have not flipped.

I think E*trade has set up different passes though their computer system searching for accounts which meet specific criteria. If it does, the text message and time stamp is different from all other accounts. If we want to narrow the possible combinations, all those interested would need to agree on a format to place on SI and post our results. For example:

1/4 on IPO XXX.

DJ on Acct# 1 at 10:23PM, no flip
DJ on Acct# 2 at 9:50PM, flipped within 30 days
DJ on Acct# 3 at 10:00PM, no cash available
Allocated Acct# 4 at 10:15PM, no flip and extra cash

Though this may take a few IPOs to figure this out, I would think within one week we will have solved the issue how E*Trade works.

Regards,

Bob

Possibly AOL changes what is on that screen

It's possible, but when I click on it I get etrades home page with the ebay sign up bonus. Try using IE instead of the aol browser.

Here is the link I finally found, not sure if it is still valid:

Message 13157240

If you are able to determine that it is not valid, go to clearstation.com where there is a link for a 100 dollar bonus for starting an account.
