    What happens if you don't close your position today?
    or Buy 100 shares and close the position tomorrow

  4. That's the mystery, since OTC don't trade ah we won't know till Tuesday!

    People should stop trading what they don't understand.

    Here is another winning response:
    It’s really hard to say goodbye to the running stock since every broker has different spreads. Spreads get wider and then due to this trade execution is affected to a great extent. Therefore, it’s really important to keep your eye on your running stocks i.e. when to open a trade and when to close.

    In case anybody misunderstood my response was sarcastic as the response showed a lack of knowledge..
