Great! Now I find out that I sold 1,000 shares and not the other way around. That was after my broker was unavailable to change a GTC and sold another security $1 1/8 under what I wanted to change my target to, which would have executed. Should I take trading into my own hands? Could I get some comments on whether trading on-line works well for people? What I hear from the houses is that execution of the orders on the internet are subject to spreads that eat profits. I tested this about a year ago and found that to be true. Is it getting any better with all the competition in the market? Thanks, (-8 Dennis 8-)
