Keith, I've heard reference to anamoly week many times in posts related to these NG storage reports. Stupid me...I can't wrap my mind around this concept. Could you or any of the other more learned NG intellectuals explain its meaning, and how it affects these weekly reports? I tried some intraday trades in PTEN this a.m. hoping to catch some spikes from what I anticipated would be bullish NG price action if the EIA draw came in close to Robry's. Needless to say, that weak figure really screwed up my strategy...I dumped a couple hundred, and am cashed out on PTEN. Still unintentionally holding a late session buy in GW...put in a breakeven sell order at $5.38 (Limit/Day) in the last few minutes which did not get executed even though the bid & ask sat on 5.39 for the last 4 minutes with 1000's traded on that price, and it even closed showing last trade at 5.39. Schwab told me it didn't get executed due to the American Exchange not functioning during the last 15 mins or so. I feel I was hosed, but couldn't get any sympathy, so I'll have to try to manuever something on the open tomorrow. Wonder if anybody can offer some judgement on this kind of treatment...should it be expected to happen occasionally? Many thanks, Buck
