Mitch, The Top Stocks page on StockMaster is meant to be a list of the most requested pages on our site, and is for the benefit and interest of all of our users. When one user hammers a particular stock repeatedly just to move it up the list, the value of the overall page is decreased for everyone. Until we can limit the usage reporting by user, we have disabled FTEL from this page. It will no longer appear as of noon today. We monitor Top Stocks and bar such behavior as needed, to keep it fair and meaningful for all users. Mitch, email us privately and let's discuss how to remove this restriction for FTEL. Sincerely, StockMaster Customer Support stockmaster@stockmaster.com
