No idea about the ask. Regarding the order confirmation (understand: only the order, not the execution) I watch the messages and look whether a line showing a "Tracking Number appears". If, then I look at the tape and hope my pieces are bought/sold. In heavily traded issues where my price isn't out of the world I will have an execution. However it may take some time until the daily activity portfolio etc. is updated and the order is replaced by the execution in the Daily Activity window. Cancelling an order which has been executed (but is still displayed) may take 3-8 minutes, until the order disappears - but has no effect in case the order has been filled. Not knowing this "facility" costed me money when I sold & shorted some hot&running issues, when I only wanted to get out. IS
