Clearly, the trading hours (and days, if necessary) should be extended, until AMAT is over 40. Once we get over 40, I will accept that all trades have been counted, and the trading can stop. I mean, look at it this way: I sit down at my PC, I log onto Etrade, press all correct keys (several dozen), and then enter Q234TGG, when I should have entered W234TGG, for my confirmation code, so my trade doesn't go through. And each online broker has a different complicated set of rules before they will accept a trade. Massive undercounting, and throwing out of spoiled trades, happens every day. Some brokers throw out more than others, which means all stock orders are not being treated equally. Any objective examination of the facts would reveal my clear intent to trade. Only market manipulators and shorters could disagree with this analysis. Should we let a rigid dogmatic adherence to protocols get in the way of counting an investor's intent? Due process, equal protection under the law, and the pursuit of happiness, have been grossly violated. I'm sure not happy, so my rights must have been violated. My lawyer says I ought to get at least $100,000 from Etrade, just to settle the suit quietly. Unfortunately, his fees will take all but $3.98 of that.
