This kind of reinforce the thinking that buying at the open is a NO NO.

I almost ready to come to the same conclusion. Have you noticed that there is a window of 15-30 minutes after the market opens that a hot stock will weaken even if the eventual trend is higher for the rest of the day?

BTW, glad you are having good luck with Datek. Modifying an order at Waterhouse is extremely dangerous if the servers are slow and the markets are moving since the order must be "reviewed" by a human before the modification goes thru. Ugh! I've been burned a few times on that one.
