...O.T...
Rob, Thursday I was having trouble getting all of my order
filled by E*Trade, and since they will only allow one to
place up to 16th's on this stock, I had to place my order
at 1 13/16(1.8125) which was higher than the ask which was
1.78 at the time but it was the next 16th in line. Well it
filled shortly at 1.79 which was less than my order. I've
done this before and came out okay. I could have placed it
at market which was 1.78 at the time, but market could have
jumped before filling my order. Even though placing it at
a higher limit order it gave me a limit as how high it could
go.
Even if you do go with a market order remember DP's post about
"pound foolish". The next day could be 1/4 point higher.(ouch)
One other thing is call your broker and he might can enter
an order for you between the 16th's if you speak to him live.
Of course the commission is a little higher but probably
a savings overall.
Hope this helps.
Dan
