Interesting....I had no idea ETrade would/could restrict your trading of an IPO. If brokerage houses/underwriters did this, the stock action would not be too exciting (no shares to trade). Where did you hear about ETrades restrictions?

MarketWatch IPO'd @ $17 and was up 458% the first day....

ETrade seems to prefer you to hold it for more than 30 days, otherwise they won't give you any IPO next time?!

As of now I believe this is absolutely not true. They may do it in the future but at this time I know they don't:

On Friday I dumped all the CDOT and NETO that I got as an IPO and flipped half of the MMXI I got as an IPO. I just received 100 TSCM.
