[IB Beginner] HPQ Today?

Discussion in 'Order Execution' started by jk90029, May 21, 2015.

  1. Dear-

    Attached is a daily chart for HPQ, captured around 3:40 Thursday.

    The graph tell me daily high was $34.99. Therefor, the three SELL orders less than the daily High (precisely 34.2 , 34.4 and 34.9) are SUPPOSED TO BE EXECUTED.

    I guess either one of the two

    1) The graph is erroneously wrong?

    2) NYSE staff was lazy to disregard my order?

  2. Today, the SELL order at 33.90 was executed fortunately.

    1) Can I trust the IB graph and NYSE?
    2) Should I leave IB to find other place? Tell me other broker.
    3) Or should I leave NYSE to find other country?

    This case is NOT first time, in my experience (less than a year) in IB.

  3. At the time of 5/22 Friday night, HPQ is drawn at IB, as below.

    My claim to sell at (precisely 34.2 , 34.4 and 34.9) in OP, is actually executed a day later in Friday.

    However THIS IS BY CHANCE. Please take a look.

  4. On 5/21, HPQ did not go above $34.19 until 16:05:26, which is outside of regular trading hours. The high of the day during regular trading hours was $33.94. Did your orders have the "Fill Outside RTH" option turned on?
