Yacoov,

I see also that SUN traded as high as 95, but... with a NASDAQ stock there is the BID and ASK. With a market order the BID is the price you would get when selling. The BID with SUNW is usually about 1/8 point lower than the ASK, which is the price you would have to pay to buy the stock.

So if the stock traded at a high of 95, that would have been the price people would have been able to "buy" at, not the price you could have sold at... Most likely your trade did not get executed. the only way to know for sure though is to verify with your broker/trader...
