<<If the shares are for an IRA, one has to figure out things very, very closely or surprise! The shares cost more than the cash in one's account. Then one gets stuck selling something.>>

This just happened to me last week. I was on touchtone entering an order in a Brown IRA and online with Waterhouse. The Waterhouse market price was $5 below what I needed to get another 250 Q. While I was working through the Brown system it started moving up and I ended up being about 8cents/share over, or $20. The guy at Brown said I needed to take care of it by the end of the day and wouldn't charge any commission(only $5 anyway). I sold one share of LWIN to cover it. Had quite a lot of fun telling everyone I sold my first share of Leap.
