Let's see if I have this right.

1. You entered a limit order.

2. Your order was executed.

Now, what's all that other stuff all about?

Pretty interesting Kayaker,

I do have a couple of questions as well.

Once you saw that information did you have to tell your broker which exchange to send the order to, or just wait it out knowing what was out there?
Are brokers happy to have you direct them?
Is QCharts real time streaming in this case and reasonable price wise?

More questions, but enough for now.

Thanks,

Tony

Kayaker, stupid question re your shorting the QCOM Jan 70 put. Does your broker "take out" $70k out of your margin "allowance" or the net of $ 42.90 ? And either way, this amount of money now sits "untapped", ie. can't play with it.

I am just wondering if, from a % return standpoint, it would be more beneficial to go full margin, i.e. buy 2000 shares long and write in the money leap calls ?

.........expanding my horizon ......... :)

thanks,
anna
