I wouldn't count on this as anything other than a short-term situation. e.g. Have placed a number of 1000 share market orders (most recent 9/27) and all filled in few seconds in total.

UncleFrank,

8 minutes for a market order? That's almost unheard of. My GMST purchases went thru fast. Do you think maybe your brokerage was just having some technical difficulties?

Nice movement on GMST the past couple of days....Glad you got a good fill eventually.
