Jim Most of my buys are placed with limit orders at the bid. A couple of times I jumped on a fast moving stock and the only way to get filled would have been a market order. I was watching EGGS yesterday and at times it was moving so fast that the bid was increasing 1/16-1/8 every 10 seconds. Hard to catch something like that without a market order if you really want to get on board. When I sell, it usually was at a SOES market order because I wanted a fast execution to lock in my profits before it started falling again. Like I said earlier, I found it hard to play the fast movers and aim to try a different tactic next week. Dave
