Geez, wish you had told me sooner... or I had waited...

I watched the stock trade between 7 7/16 and 7 1/2 for about half an hour after the open, and decided that it didn't seem to be going anywhere. So I put my order in, and got filled at 7 1/2. BTGC promptly dropped.

Oh well. I've got so little cash left my broker rejected my margin order, so I only picked up 150 shares. I'm now another $56 in the hole. With any luck, I'll completely erase my account within a month, and I can give up on this whole investing thing for good...

It's amazing that, not so long ago, I owned 800 shares of creaf....

Herm,

Where can I get information about block trades?
I would be happy even with delayed quote, or summary
for the day report. I cannot use the LiveCharts feature
at quote.com for 2 reasons:

1. I am behind a firewall, a slow one that is, and quote.com's
java tool does not run very well - when it does run.
2. I have a day time job that prevents me from being glued
to the screen.

Of course, these 2 also rule out any Level 2 screens. Sigh!

Thanks In Advance,

//V
