0 for 6 makes me feel better. I gave up checking Etrade for IPOs months ago. Kicking myself all afternoon. Oh well, made a quick buck in the aftermarket, and I don't have to hold for 30 days. Will be interesting to see if it's only a 1-day wonder. Anything else coming I should be watching for?

but I thought Etrade's IPO policy was that they first give 50 shares to everyone that wants them.. and IF, there are enough shares to go around once for everyone, then they go back and distribute another round of 50 shares to those who asked for 100 shares.. and so on.. thus, no one should get more than 50 shares UNLESS the demand is so low that all those who wanted at LEAST 50 shares got them. oh well.. why do I even ask.. lol ; we all know how freaked up Etrade's processes and policies are ; man, if you work for Etrade and get fired for bad service.. you must really suck because the bar has been lowered so low over there.. it's nearly lying on the floor jimb
