Mutual Fund Trading: Anomalies, Part V - The Return

I'm back! Mr. Mutual Fund is at it again. I noted with interest that the "Mutual Funds You Can Trade Soon" had changed back to "Mutual Funds You Can Trade". After my last round of frolicsome fun with Peter's MF trading system, I couldn't resist yet another poke at it.

First - Things seem to be ~much~ better. I was able to confirm two purchases with apparent ease. We'll see what happens tonight.

Second - The only anomaly I ran into was when cancelling a purchase on the confirmation screen. I was returned to the quote screen with an appropriate message about "purchase not confirmed". However, I now have an open order with no date (it does have a time), neither a buy nor a sell indicated, quantity 0, no symbol with a status of '?-Day' and an asterisk. The asterisk tells me that I got a partial fill on a larger order and will only be charged one commission. How sweet!

Petey, you're darn close. Break out VI one more time for a little more polish and you'll be dead on. Tips, gratuities, hush money and bribes are all accepted and appreciated.

I'll report in tomorrow as to the success of my MF meddlings.
