Jim,
The stock didn't trade between my order price of 152 and 160, it went from below 152 to 160 so I get the 160 which is the first trade beyond my strike. In 30 years of trading this is the first time I sold for the high of the day.

James et al,

Re:

Cosmo,

your limit sell for 152 got filled at 160? You lucky dog!<g>

jim

I've got one better for you. I bought some (400) in AM at 146 and 143 1/4. Before leaving with family to buy furniture, I placed order to sell all at 148. Came back and saw spike at close figuring I was filled at 148ish. Checked Schwab confirmation to find fill was at 160. I've NEVER experienced that much of a "blow-through" of my limit orders before. A wonderful way to end a wonderful year.
