Mike, I don't know if this is the correct answer, obviously 15th and 16th are the weekend-so no trading. When trading there is always a settlement period, ie T+1, +3 etc. It maybe that the brokers need the 3 days for settlement and hence the cut off before the 17th. This maybe particularly relevant as they also have to account for exchange rates with this particular share. Wiser heads may have a better answer.
