I'm pretty sure he is right, twice I got an IPO in an account that flipped another one because the second IPO was allocated before the sell of the first one cleared (3 business days). I have also noticed that after I flip an IPO I don't get the early DJ's in that account until the day after that trade clears, indicating to me that that account is not in jail until the trade clears. Since you sold the stock on 3/10 and 3/15 is 3 business days later, I would guess that your account was in the same situation and fortunately you got the second IPO before you were put in jail. Of course there is no way to be sure since there is no indication on the account screens but the evidence points in that direction based on the posts here. Carl
