Sorry Bongman, I'm holding the Jan 100 puts right now, so I'd like for the stock to be above the close of 113 so i can close my position. In the worst case, I guess I don't mind owning CMGI at 100, but I'll have to get myself some pepto bismol for the heartburn that comes with riding this rollercoaster.

Same thing happened to me with a cancelled order. Between that foul up and the fact that I can't obtain my order status for hours, I'm ready to dump them. Applied for a Datek account yesterday...any comments on their service on busy days.

get this one with dlj direct: i put in several limit buys and change buys this am on lu at 100 then at 102, then at market, chasing it off its lows. it finally executed at 101 plus and i thought i was done until i accidentally spotted a market order buy still open. i canceled but was shocked that the execution was on my limit buy and the market change remained active and independent. there are still many glitches these on line brokers have to fix before it will be a safe haven.

one of my major gripes is instinet/levelII trading. it totally obliterates the level playing field between mm's and us and i think someone could get elected president by promising to change it, although they would be assasinated before they could deliver on the promise. all but daytraders are victims.

At Fidelity, you have to go to your stop order and do a "cancel and replace."

By the way according to the following, it traded at $95 afterhours but you know how quickly that can change.
