THANKS FOR THE POST... it is funny how little you pay attention to other people's grief until it starts effecting you..i have taken some steps to ease the problems,but i am paying the price with not fully making the most out of my plays... mytrack-opening 15 minutes...stinks... and if i do hold i put my sell orders in on the fourth mm's on gaps because their time of executions in the morning is a crap shoot.. customer service- i have waited for 11 days for them to transfer my moms account onto my trading level2 screen account...i have sent 4 emails made 3 calls and today after all my yelling about the b.s i think that i might actually get that account that i have been trying to correct since christmas taken care of,during this post i got a response from barry telling me that it would be taken care of... THIS IS MY THOUGHTS ON THIS- PROBLEMS,SOMETIMES IT IS OUT OF THEIR HANDS BUT THE ONE THING YOU CAN OFFER IS CUSTOMER SERVICE...WHEN PEOPLE HAVE PROBLEMS THEY NEED RESULTS,ANSWERS,....THAT IS IT... WHEN PEOPLE WAIT THEY GET MORE UPSET,WHEN THEY GET NO RESULTS IT COMPOUNDS THE PROBLEMS.. WHEN SOMEONE YELLS AT YOU,THEY ARE JUST SAYING-HOW CAN YOU HELP ME... NOT PLEASE WAIT,YOUR CALL IS VERY IMPORTANT TO US,WE WILL ANSWER IT AS SOON AS WE GET DONE EATING LUNCH,OR EVEN HIRING ANYBODY TO TAKE CARE OF THIS... ONE THING I KNOW FROM ALL MY YEARS RUNNING SOME BIG FIRMS.-EVERYONE OFFERS PRICE,AND PRODUCTS,THE BETTER COMPANIES OFFER SERVICE... PRICE,PRODUCTS BRING CUSTOMERS IN,SERVICE KEEPS THEM....

Today, MytracK got me a 10K buy on 1 commission but then did 3 partial fills on the sell (LVFIQ) and charged me 12.95 on each one. My previous broker would just charge 1 commission. Was I spoiled or what? Thoughts??? Bear

Absolutely right lightfoot... With the OTCBB stocks, we had a level playing field with the MMs for awhile... now the field has been canted in their favor again... these guys will not fill unless it benefits them is some way. I have contacted HERZOG, NITE and myTrack on several occasions (many, many occasions) and receive different answers every time. I too have a lawyer in this field and am taking some action. I have not lost any money the last several weeks but have missed many huge moves because of no fill... I have lost big profits on stocks because of no fill... How many times have we myTrack users played a gap stock and tried to sell some? I place the order several cents below the opening price just to try to get a fill -- the stock will remain above that price for several minutes and some times as much as 15-30 minutes after the open... then the stock starts coming down and goes through the limit sell with no fill. Some people have suggested using MARKET ORDERS... I would rather give a bunch chimpanzees loaded, cocked, off saftey shotguns to play with in my house with all my friends and family over for a social than use a Market Order in this environment... MARKET ORDERS ON THE OTCBB are a death wish. Tom
