You are whining!

If you believe your market orders should be executed instantaneously at the price you see on your screen at the moment you place your order you do not have much experience trading stocks.

I have traded stocks for 15 years. I have used full service brokers - Goldman Sachs, Merrill Lynch, Shearson; discount brokers - Fidelity, and internet brokers - Fidelity. I have had down time with all of these services.

Any one that places a market order for any trade is a fool! If you are doing this to save an additional $5.00 in commission you are a bigger fool.
