Your new shares should have a different number than say your axe shares

Actually no, the HIN number for my ITM shares as seen on the automic website is
the same HIN number that is on the CHESS statements for my ANZ holdings
which is where I hold AXE. Thus it's the same HIN number therefore I would
assume that if/when these ITM shares do appear in my ANZ account that there
would be no reason why I couldn't trade them.

And just like no one can sell my AXE shares presently (as they require the
account logon), so no one should be able to sell my ITM shares.

Am I still missing something ????

I think there's something about your
circumstance that is unconventional Chingy and it may have something
to do with the fact that you hold three different parcels of AXE with different
brokers......maybe
