My ticker symbol can't be found
1. That ticker has been delisted or it has undergone a ticker change. There are dozens, if not hundreds, of tickers delisted or changed each year. You can check to see if there is a new entity with the same name by using the AOL Money search box and searching for the name of the company or instrument in which you are interested.
2. That ticker is an unsupported penny stock. AOL Money does not add tickers to its list of supported tickers that trade for less than .10 and we delist ones that trade for less than .01 due to a lack of reliable data on these securities. In general, penny stocks require sufficient volume to remain supported. Generally, this means 30 day mean trading volume must equal or exceed $50,000. There are exceptions to this rule, such as new ETFs that are ramping up trading, and companies returning from a trading delay. AOL Money doesn't support preferreds or warrants as a rule, both because they lack sufficient volume and they typically lack a great deal of data necessary for making a solid purchase decision.
3. That ticker belongs to an unsupported asset class.
