Mike,
"Craig, I can understand that. South Sea islanders, a savvier group, by far, than the Dell thread, thought cargo planes were gods when they dropped provisions during WWII. <g>"
Assuming that you, like me, respect all religions, does this mean that we should play it safe for the afterlife and own at least some Boeing shares? -g-
"I used to play the old 50 cents or less puts and calls. One big winner makes up for a lot of little losers."
Yes, it was a dumbish move. I actually tried to cancel the order but Schwab has this special feature that order cancellations are given lowest priority. (to -g- or not to -g-) I must have waited three minutes(or six times longer than for a buy order) after hitting the cancel button on that trade. In the last of those three minutes, of course, the order got filled(and I got hosed). I guess the priority makes sense though, since Schwab doesn't make a dime from a cancellation order. -g-
