A: Go to the advanced trader.

select security type = active and delisted (Active movies are active.  All others are inactive; including delisted AND IPOs).

Select Movies as the security

Go to price and enter $2 as the minimum.  ((1) You will need to limit results to less than 500 and (2) IPOs are $2 or more 99% of the time.  Anything less than that will not be a future IPO (usually))

Enter $3 for max

Sort by status by clicking the status column header twice.  Avail IPOs are at the top.

----------

Then change min to $3 and set max to $5 - click search again.  click status twice, IPOs are at the top.

Continue to raise the increments until you have hit max $$ you wish to explore.  Keep in mind, your increments may be too wide and your results could exceed 500.  That truncates the list.  Trial and error your price span until it is narrow enough to have no error message and you will be sure to see them all.

I hope this makes sense to you.  Good luck and trade responsibly.
