I did have a market order to buy 200 at open, but I canceled it after reading the advice of people on here and after looking at the first day trading history of some other IPOS (GCTY and BCST). I suppose I'll wait until it opens and just play it by ear. As soon as I buy, I'm going to set up a stop limit order to protect myself against huge losses. Even though this may trigger too easily if the stock is volatile, I'd rather that happen than it fall 50% from some absurd early high and get killed on it. At 9:33, Datek says that EBAY trading is halted... I just bought some ONSL to try for a sympathy play today. Thanks to whoever posted that idea...should be a solid bet with little downside today.
