The exchanges are experiencing severe order entry report delays. Cancellations cannot be processed until the
original order is confirmed by the corresponding exchange. the delays are currently 90 minutes or longer.
Please use caution to avoid duplicate orders.

Orders showing 'placed' have been transmitted to the appropriate exchange. You cannot cancel 'market'
orders during markey hours. Entering cancellations on 'market' orders will only continue to slow the system.
