What is ATM common equity offering?
ATM equity offering is an alternative way of raising capital by issuing equity through existing secondary markets over a period of time.
Basically issuer gets in agreement with a sales agent (generally investment banks) to sell specified number of shares over the period of time. Issuer has the flexibility of issuing any number of shares during that time frame unlike traditional equity issuance where certain number of shares has to be issued at the time of issuance.
The flexibility of timely issuance of shares helps issuer to match its demand of capital with the supply by controlling the number of shares issued. Additionally it reduces the volatility of stock price by avoiding issuance of large number of stocks at the time of high market price of share and little or no issuance at the time when market price of shares is low.

Why won't Scottrade allow you to buy stocks under a dollar?
Scottrade will allow you to buy stock under a dollar otherwise known as penny stocks. If you are trying to place a market order for these stocks you will get a message telling you that market orders for this stock will not be permitted. This is simply asking you to place this trade as a limit order. Change your order entry to a limit order and list the most you would be willing to pay for this stock. This is an added level of protection for the investor so that your order does not fill at a price higher than what you might have been expecting. A few cents on a penny stock trade could have a significant effect on your investment. Also, stocks trading under a dollar are unmarginable so this may effect your trade if you are using a margin account. Even if you do not use margin you may still get a message saying "You have insufficient funds" this may be the result of restrictions placed on a recent deposit. There is a three day hold on Money Direct (ACH Deposits) when purchasing unmarginable securities. During the first three business days following those deposits you may purchase stock over four dollars a share (marginable) but you may not purchase stock under four dollars a share (unmarginable) until the deposit has cleared.
