Hi Anna:

Long time no see!

Just to add to the other responses, it may depend on whether or not you used a sell stop. I don't know how it works on the TSE, but on the futures markets a sell stop becomes a market order when it gets "triggered".

If that was the case, then what could have happened this morning is that the first transaction of the morning ($6.70 or whatever it was) was below your stop, which then immediately became a market order. This would then be filled at the best price they could get for you at that point.

Hope this is clear, even if it's not the best news :^(
But it's never a bad thing to take some profits. There's lots of other good bargains out there to re-invest in <g>.

Howy
