Sorry that happened to you--I hope you do well here. Was the stock that you were in at the time a penny stock? I noticed you had a sell order on it for 12 and wonderd if you were from the school of thought that if one puts a sell order in at a much higher price, it prevents yours shares from being used by the shorts? I have read that more than one time on penny boards, but have never known if it was true or not. Good luck with PTSC, ads
