I entered an order at 20:45, received a confirmation and tracking number, and checked the Open Orders and Daily Activity. My order was nowhere to be found!! I entered another one. What are the chances of getting 2 executions out of this?? I only want one. If anyone from Datek is reading, please check for email. I have reported this here a couple of times. I have had this happen during trading hours, and one time I reentered an order, but had both fill. It seems that the new servers take some time to post their orders on the Daily Activity page. If you pressed the Place Order button, then you should assume that your order went through, even if you don't see it.

To All, I just sent in the new account forms with a check for 30K,this morning so my account is not even open yet. but every time I even tried to get to there site today I get the message unable to locate server, is this a common problem or what ? Any help would be appriciated This so far looks as it may be the shortest account that Datek has had and hate the idea of going through all this trouble and not even placing a trade through them. Thanks Tim
