JSI,

I have traded one stock on the pinks. The only way I could get a bid/
ask was to call my live broker and he would call and get it for me.
I think we both had/have that same stock in common. MINE?

This is not the case with an OTC BB where you can see a bid/ask on any
quote server. I totally agree on the market order but I would not
limit that to just BB stocks.

I welcome any info you can provide on the above.

Bob

Thanks JSI, I was just reading David Dremen's book on Contrarian Investing in which he wails against the spread taken by market makers on OTC stocks....very interesting.

Bob, what announcement were they referring to for the middle of this month?
