Point well taken. However it is difficult to grab one of these fast movers that go up and down in about 5 minutes. Just to let you know this story didn't have an unhappy ending. I sold at 19 15/16 within a minute of my final fill.

Better...place a limit order to buy above the offer, at your max number, the very greatest price you will pay, that way you minimize the chances of missing it for a teenie or so.
Similar to when a client might give me an order to buy it at x with 1/4 pt. discretion.
