Dale I agree 100% with Anthony. Even if EGRP didn't have the shares the trades were done. Somebody made a profit off your trade and should be YOU! Force EGRP to prove that the trade never occurred on Friday and they didn't pocket the profit. If it went the opposite way EGRP would have bought to cover and made you eat the loss. Fight it you have an excellent case! Good Luck! Rory

i have several stories to tell about etrade. let me begin with the most recent one. this past friday,13 nov at about 11:40 a.m, i placed an order to short INFO at 7.once i placed my order,it briefly traded below 7 and ramped up to about 7 1/4.then it began falling and fell all the way to about 5 5/8. i got no confirmation of a trade execution. so i called etrade and asked them to do a trade inquiry. after some time,INFO reversed and came back up to 7 and then my order was executed.but, it stayed stubbornly around 7 .so i covered my short at about break even by 2:30 p.m. i would like to get feedback from people. if you have had similar experiences,what might have happened to my order etc. it seems like there is a lot of manipulation by the brokers apart from the mm's. and as per my trading enquiry,i am still waiting for etrade's call.
