How does a stop in a spike rally act? Doesn't the price first have to hit 85.00 in order to be triggered and then the fill is probably above that at some point? If that is the case I would presume what you are saving is the time necessary to get the order to the floor which in a spike could be 2 or more points. OK, I understand. I think I should just stay out of the market the last hour. It seems to get crazy nuts in that time frame. Still amazed over my fills....both the initial and the close-out. Wasn't what I expected at all. Guess physical stops make sense in that variety of warfare. Thanks for the answer. -Scott
