Give an example please. Ticker symbol.

It sounds like something that is extremely illiquid and you don't want to touch those.

Those are just some stocks that get virtually no volume. NTMG hasn't had one trade in the last month. In the last year, the most it's traded in one day was 100 shares. NA jsut means that there is no last price, no bid, or no ask, because no one is trading them. You should be able to look at a chart and identify these types of stocks at first glance. No volume = no good.
