Question to anyone who has knowledge on how orders are filled. Decided to add to my position in Dell this morning (listening to Kemble). Placed a market order (with Schwab) at the open to buy 200 shares. At 9:48 I received confirmation that my order was partially filled at 102 11/16. At 9:53 I received another confirmation that the balance of my order was filled at 101 7/8. The stock opened today at 101 7/8. How is it that with such high volume, my entire order was not filled? More importantly, I checked the movement of the stock and it appears as though the stock did not move back to 101 7/8 after hitting 102 11/16. I know we're only talking about a difference of 13/16 of a point(=$81) but I was just curious. Thanks. Kevin
