Nah, that's okay, I averaged down. Honestly I ended up with about 1,800 shares of that stock and I was in quite a frenzy to get as much as I can. I don't usually get that much but lately with STMP and PHCM I've been looking for 1,000 and over. With the 15 minute time limit on SI, I sometimes write the price on the market(which is price I enter on my screen then go to the second computer and write a price seconds before the actual fill (sometimes I only get a partial fill and its even worse then). I do that rarely only on stocks that could fly really quickly like a PHCM inthe morning or NDB etc), then press the order button, its usually 90% of the time the same on the fill and post but then I could go wrong and it could be for a fractional difference. By the time I go back to the 'post' the 15 minute time period is gone and there is nothing to do. Then if and when I print the exit I use the post for the entry so it makes more sense. (Am I making sense now?!?) It's actually gone both ways though there are times I've gotten in a fractional less than posted and especially with options, I've gotten out at a fractionally better price or in becausse sometimes my market order fill is lower than anticipated as the stock price had fallen fractionally in the last 5-7 seconds.
