I have been working in Vietnam for quite some time, and agree with most of your comments. However, we must be careful of the media wash so to speak. To be on the ground here is a slightly different story. Stay tuned for news from Lorachell coming soon regarding the stock markets in Nam. Best, Eric Stevens GumShoe. .I enjoyed reading your posts and admire your frankness.

The market maker required a 1,000 share minimum purchase. That's why my buy orders didn't go through. Since it's a pink sheet stock, I wasn't willing to invest that much in the stock. P.S. Thanks for the helpful insights. Hi Gumshoe,
I got an e-mail from my brokerage firm. The market maker required a 1,000 share minimum purchase. That’s why my buy orders didn’t go through. Since it’s a pink sheet stock, I wasn’t willing to invest that much in the stock.
P.S. Thanks for the helpful insights.

I haven't checked the volume on this one on the pink sheets, but it's probably pretty low. One thing that often works for London listed shares is to buy first thing in the morning, when London and NY are both open, so that there's a clear price. If you bid a couple percent above the London price on these kinds of shares you can often get a fill. That's just a general observation, I haven't tried to trade this one -- maybe it's not as liquid on the pink sheets as it used to be. Just checked -- looks like just under 20,000 shares traded at $3 today, so less than one percent above the London close. Who knows how many buyers were out there, but that's only $60,000 for a whole day, most of it probably in the morning when London was still open. It trades about $3 million worth of shares a day in London. Hi Mo. I haven’t checked the volume on this one on the pink sheets, but it’s probably pretty low.

Every time I did, it said my order was "cancelled". I gave up, deciding I didn't want it after all since things were acting suspiciously. Yes, I understand there is a buy/sell spread, but generally your buy order isn't cancelled until the end of the day on a day order.
