I didn't think this could happen, but.... I entered a market buy for some CPQ this morning using automated telephone entry. Just for the heck of it, I thought I'd check the fill a few minutes later on the Internet. To my horror, I saw the trade had been filled as a SELL! It took a few minutes checking at the (discount) broker but they came back and said, Yes, they had reversed the order and would reverse it back at the fill price (42.5625). All Right! Makes a big difference compared to having to buy back twice as much at a higher price. Phew! Lesson-----> check market fills quickly. Onward and upward! Stuart.
