hmmm, what exactly do you mean you have to hunt around for the price you paid - that doesn't spound too good - I'll take a closer look at their demos now, cybertrader - is that computer generated orders - tht is exactly what I am looking for, where can I find more running stops - running stops is a difficult thing, because the run can be a tremendous woosh - today I was short sieb and it was sitting happily at 24 and something doing nothing, then in 10 minutes it was at 26 7/8 - I let it fade back a bit and got out just under 26 1/2, but still it ran right by anything I might have called a stop....of course by the end of the day I would have been profitable again...

stumpy, are we talking about the same preferred?? I looked at their demo, and they seem to have a very nice one screen order system right on the first screen they have a filled order segment which clearly showed the price at which the order was filled and then they have a tab for trades which shows all today's trades with prices and then they have a positions and P/L tab that shows your current positions and your profit and loss - now this screen did not show what the stock was bought at and I could imagine it would be a pain to lookup in trade history to see what you paid a few days ago, but P&L sure seem to be there... so I am not sure exactly what you mean...
