I have a coupla internet brokerage accounts. My favorite one is Ameritrade.

Before the MSFT split, I bought a coupla limit order calls a few days before. I checked back every few minutes to see the fill, but none was there. After 3pm, the purchases were listed as expired.

Next day, MSFT is down 5, and I was like "Thank God" they didn't fill. When I checked my account, they did actually fill it.

I called in to Ameritrade and they said "Hunh, that's strange."

They suck -ng-
