Hi rd - with regard to your buy call/put *analogy*, I ve actually done that with stks a couple of times out of haste [I don't do options!] Each time, I quickly did the reverse with the double amount of stk. Yes, I ve lost a spread and commission, but they only inflicted marginal damage to my bottom line. Obviously, I don't think I can blame it on anyone. However, from a bigger picture perspective, I could always change broker --- and I did --- if I didn't like their CRM, mechanised or not. However, if one is a captive user of a system, then one doesn't have that choice. So, should one to force to learn all the "supervisor calls" or "interrupts?" What do you think?
