Doesn't help me as I have Oct 32.5 calls. Put my order in, changed it from 3 3/4 to 3/1/4. PBS filled the 3 3/4, it never showed up in by executions until 1 1/2 hours later. Assuming the order at 3 3/4 was cancelled. (they don't give cancellations like DATEK does) I reordered at 3 1/4. Also a fill. They then looking over the situation, no fault of theirs of course, are wanting to give me a margin call. NO WAY, it was their error and they won't take it back. Besides my VVUS being called out will cover the margin.

Short of it is I have more 32.5 calls than I ever wanted at an average of 3 1/2 instead of 3 1/4. Figure their computer cost me $$$ plus commissions. For the short term I don't want to see another pull back until I can correct this position.
