<<Datek "covered" my position in LHSG for me at 9:30am @45 3/4.>> Well, at least you got bought in at a better price... They also told me on the phone that they had called in everyone with LHSG. I guess they finished up just before I called??!! I'm not suprised that they couldn't explain what was going on over the phone. I had to talk to 3 diffenent people and get put on hold about 5 times until they could tell me that I got bought in. They tried to tell me at first that I had called in the order. At least I got a free trade out of the deal. Woopie!! If they are going to buy you in why cant they at LEAST give a call?? Do they have so many buy ins that it can't be done??? I have also noticed that everytime I have been bought in (at other brokers as well) it preceeded a big drop. Most notibly PNDA just before the last big drop to penny land. Was panda in such great demand??. More likely a bigger customer than me wanted a good price on the crap they should have sold 6 months before. At least I made money on that. It does seem to be a dirty game they play. Andy
