musicman, This is off topic but since you have experience with Schwab, did you use the T&S window to trade? Any problems with duplicate block shares printed? Thanks.
I use their market depth trading window â I would not know if there were duplicate block trades as it was moving so fast and I would not pay attention to that anyway. Even if I did pay attention I doubt I could tell if there were duplictae trades being posted.
ZNGA had very active trading after they reported , no reason for my trades not to go off , you can see I cancelled and re submitted many times.
Schwab "After-Hours" order routing does not begin until 4:15PM You can submit your order starting at 4:05PM, but it won't get executed until 4:15PM http://help.streetsmart.schwab.com/Com/3.36/Content/Extended_Hours_Trading.htm http://help.streetsmart.schwab.com/Com/3.36/Content/Direct_Access_Order_Routing.htm ARCA and NASDAQ order routing is available though.
I did route via Acra to start. Bottom line - Schwab sucks . Never again will I trade anything with them other then long term or swing trades. After hours starts at 4 Pm - Schwab wont execite until 4:15 - WTF kind of BS is that .
If you direct routed, you should have been able to sell an existing long position. What did Schwab say? My experience, when I used them, was that the Active Trader staff were straight shooters and didn't try to sugar coat any answers.
