No, I'm using online brokerage account. I don't think those bozos upgraded my balances quickly after my TLAB trade and they took my buy to cover order on KTEL as an outright buy, so they probably figured I didn't have enough cash to buy M$FT. My order for M$FT came in shortly after my KTEL cover came back. It looks like it got filled after it ran up to 105 11/16 and then came back to my 105 3/8 limit price. The stock was at 105 1/4 x 5/16 when I put the order in, and then even dipped to 105 1/16.

Anyway I'm not going to quibble over an 1/8 or two here. M$FT is running to 106 now and I might have to go sell!

Stinking profit takers. Keep knocking the rallies down. Will take the 3/8 point on M$FT. Main rule on trading shares don't let a respectable profit slip away into a loss.

Time for some Peanut Butter Capn. Crunch
