I would not even bother with something like this.\nBut if you really want, goto yahoo finance and use their java based stock screener.

I've done that with what I call 'loose change'.  Sometimes I've got a few dollars sitting around, obviously not going to make a lot of interest and not large enough for something substantial.  If some risky thing has been going down but I still feel it worth holding onto (its kinda fun when you sweat over a $90 stock moving a couple of bucks while a stock selling for less than a dime now goes for a buck or two, and yes, I've had that happen), then making an extra small trade can average down the value of your position.  When the stock starts to tick up for whatever reasons, you now have a lower break-even or profit point.  Again, it is only if you've got a few bucks left not doing anything and at Scottrade for $7 plus a half-point, it doesn't hurt much.  Of course, I also got a couple that are cluttering up my list because it will cost more to sell than they are worth today but that is part of the risk, right?

There are electronic trading companies for crazy people like me who can't wait for the market to open the next day.  The prices can fluctuate wildly for some stocks because the price is determined by a handful of people that are selling and a handful that are buying.  It's open for around 3 hours after the closing bell in NY and for a few hours before the opening bell.

Your question is not clear any way I will try to tell you some thing.\n\nExample:\nIf you have purchased 200 share of face value of Rs.10/- paid @ Rs.596 per share on 1.1.2006 and if the share were splited to Rs.1/- paid on 1.6.2006, then your 200 shares will become 2000 shares on 1.6.2006 and the value of each share will become Rs.596/10= Rs.59.60 per share.  The date of purchase will remain same for all shares 1.1.2006 and not 1.6.2006. The date of actual purchase of 200 shares will apply for all 2000 shares.  O.K ????????

Not sure I understand the question.  If you want to change your shares owned, then buy more or sell some depending on the current price.

You can't buy options in that short a time frame, assuming that I understand your question correctly... and what strike price are you looking for?

If you put in a limit order for $5.00 and the stock trades as low as $5.00 you may not get filled, or if it is a lot of shares you may get a partial fill. Any market orders placed before the limit price was hit will be ahead of you and there may not be enough sellers at the low price to make everyone happy.\n\nBut in general you will get them at that price or fractions of a penny better if you use someone like ameritrade and it trades through your price.

It has already started to move down from the high of 105 to 70.  Since the company is on the fast track to commence production in the next 3 years. The target for the next 6 months  trading price will be around 30 and the book value will be 10.  There will be a lot of spade work for recruiting the field level force, masonry, machinery for construction and to  commence work  in full swing will at least take 6 months and the man soon is also there to interupt work. So there is no hope for any sky rocketing of the share price.

The price history for the stock is adjusted for the amount of the split. \nSo if it's a 2 for 1 stock split, the price would be adjusted by half not JUST FOR TODAY'S stock price, but for all the prices going back in time.\n\nIt has no effect on the value of the stock.

call your bank.  They will most likely be able to sell your stock for you.

What's happening is that nothing is happening.  The last quotation I have is $.025 (2 1/2 cents) per share, and (almost) zero volume.  Stockholders are awaiting new news about California prospects.  Just now is "sleepy" time, but hang in there.

The sale of such a small amount will not affect the overall price of the stock.  You'd have to sell a very large block of stock to move the price on most shares and then if you were successful in lowering the price, the fact that you were buying a larger block than you sold may move the price back up making your trade a loser.

More than likely it is not a publicly traded company, as yet. The stock information will only come from the company itself.

Yes absoultyly gold ahs never been at this price except for in the 1980- you should have invested a year ago. This is a market trend that reflects fear of "soft money" or currency. Because the value of the dollar has fallen so much. You can invest now but it will be expensive to do so, and the price may go down. But such is the nature of stock.

i would check with a brokerage firm rather than a bank. stock brokers would want to lock up the stock for sale when it is eligible and therefore would be better equipped to evaluate its worth.\n\ncall any of the major companies or discounters like Schwab and ask for the department that handles 144 stock.

Join him on his leap of sadness.  I got hurt bad this past month in the stock market too.....\n\n\nI'm going up a few stories before I leap though.  \n\n\nAnyone want the password to my sharebuilder account?  If it goes back up..."someone" should benefit.
