Anthony, I was trading COOL both ways today and did OK, except for one thing. I had put in a buy order for 1000 shares and 100 traded very quickly, with the balance of the order disappearing from my screen rather than showing as a partial (as usual). I refreshed my positions screen several times and concluded I must have keyed the number of shares wrong, so I entered a 900sh order for the balance. TWO HOURS LATER, the other 900 shares shows up, but I didn't notice until after market. I'm now long 900sh of COOL (at a slight profit at close), but have no idea if I'll be able to exit OK tomorrow. My biggest concern is that this kind of event could cause me to exceed my daily buying limit under certain circumstances. I'm OK today, but should I call Dreyfus and let them know what happened or only if I'm at risk for a call?
