Steve - Watching early morning action in the high volume net stocks I see most transactions going off at no where near the bid-ask. This morning fills in some of the most active stocks were consistently going off at sometimes $10 LESS than current pricing, and in other cases fills were going off at several dollars higher than current pricing...and I don't mean just a few...this seemed to go on for quite a few minutes and I don't know how long it took for current pricing and the transaction log to start agreeing. I'm wondering 1) what causes this discrepancy, and 2) if one puts in a market order on one of these stocks within say 5-10 minutes of the open are you going to get filled at anywhere near posted prices? Thanks.
