Yeah......not pretty. I started my disaster recovery mode about 1 hr. into MB's outtage. Had to offset my postions in another brokerage account, really don't like doing it....but had to save my butt, my stuff was really volitile today. As far as them crediting incorrect trades to my account: it should be an easy enough correction (just one more thingto fix, though)---but I was lucky. They said I shorted some stock 40% below market (ouch)....when the stock didn't even do the volume I supposedly shorted! They just got the symbols mixed up--must have been the "joyous festivities" I heard in the background.
