etrade let me do a stop with the NEOTW's--I gather
from your message stop losses are not
usually allowed with nasdaq, that is interesting,
maybe the warrants trade elsewhere? I checked and I
don't own them anymore, shows up in my transactions,
so it worked okay. Somebody is the proud owner of
1000 warrants, guess I should have sold them along
with the other 2000 when my screen said they were
worth 10 late yesterday...but I would never have
forgiven myself if it did an Entremed today.
I made enough, don't care too much that the market
took some back away from me today...

Depends on broker for the stops.

Steve might answer that one plus these:

What is the smallest price that can be margined by the fed's rules?

Is it possible to sell a stock costing less than $4 short?

If margin rates are set by feds, how can these 90% margin places exist?

In the no-service discount brokerage, how much does average order-taker broker make?
