Snack Rat, if I could trade on the Venture directly, instead of having to go through my US brokerages and POETF (irrespective of where the trade is actually made), I'd consider the following, as I think it would have worked out well at least recently.
Say the stock price at 12:45 EST (15 minutes before close) is at 1.55; just put a day order in at 1.50 and see what happens, do it every day and perhaps some days you get a fill or a partial fill and other days nothing. But there have been quite a few days with a significant drop in the last five minutes.
I suspect a few here already do that. The changes on POETF are never as dramatic in the last few minutes as they are on PTK.V. Just an observation, good luck to all!
