Thanks for clearing that uo Eric. You are correct about it needing to be a market order.

Thread, Just thought I would bring an observation I have made to the thread for some possible discussion. Today I visited a certain daytrading office. I was very impressed with the office and the traders in the room. I currently trade at home after trading at an office for about 2 1/2 years. My observation is this: All of the folks in this industry I know that are making the BIG money (ie: 7-8 figures per year) tend to do tons of trades each day. By tons of trades each day I am talking 100 or more tickets (sometimes 100's of tickets each day). Does anyone here on this thread do that kind of volume of trades in a given day? I know that I certainly do not. I'll be the first to admit that I don't make 7 or 8 figures either (ggg). How does one find this many possible trade set-ups in a given day? I know that many individuals do not even use charts to trade off of as they find it too cumbersome. They just basically watch the level II screen and other tools that they find useful. Nothing too complicated by and stretch of the imagination. Any thoughts? Leland
