Hi.I am a recent owner of amzn and also a disgruntled schwab user. Today I put in a limit order and schwab gave me an error,
So I changed to a market order and it took them 5 minutes to
execute and wound up paying 6 points above my original limit.
Two weeks ago I put out a sell order on athm and they sold it
about 7 points below when I first placed it. What was your
experience and which broker are you planning to switch to?

It seems so easy when you do it !

Hi Happy, Your Call buying strategy seems so effective and so much profitable too. But we know that we are both taking risk and with real $$$. So nothing is easy and very dangerous playing with net stocks. Anyway, I can finally breath now that the Amzn trades are finished.
