    Hmm, no bid/ask data since some time. Price stands still at 16500. Anyone with that problem?
    Edit: Everything fine again, it seems

    I put in an order at 16200 but no fill. got error "need to allocate..." This is a F&A account for my IRA. Called and they said may not be able to trade in an IRA. Said to call US customer service tomorrow.

    Quotes and T&S are fine. Not a lot of volume.

  10. Thank you for the answer. It will probably pop before I manage to set up an account and fund it.
