7 fills / 11000 shares / net short 4000 5 short / 2 long / +423.00 - .4 / + 1.1% should have been better....
That absolutely sucks. Of course if you were on the ECN side of things, the trade would be busted. I'm sure you coined some new profanity when you realized what happened...
Geez, I forgot to take HPQ off my opening program today...stupid, stupid....it opened at $36.00 (short 3000 shares), and proceeded up to $36.70....showing me down $2700.... well, I figured it would come back, good earnings but not that great.... Anyway combined with 3 other fills, I was able to get back to a $28 profit...."coulda waited longer" but who knew....still a decent week... Don :eek:

do you submit your orders as Limit on Open (LOO) orders, or do you use regular limit orders? are there any deadlines for entering/canceling LOO orders on NYSE?
