wouldn't surprise me- i traded with these pikers for a while when i didn't know any better (right out of college and they were in my small town) but got the hell out of there for greener pastures......they were pretty shady- surprised they'd file for ch 11- they charged 2 cents/share NOT ALL-IN!!! that was what i had at first- had to pull teeth and eventually (after 1 yr) got .009 all-in...but they made SO much $$$$$ of high commissions that it wouldn't surprise me if the owners took the money and ran....just folded the biz......but i don't think this is true- i heard they were bought out by schoney for something like $14 million...but not 100% sure on that......don't really keep up with them anymore, don't really care......
