What is the rush? Jim, this was over a year ago. Who said I was in a rush? I was simply relating an anecdotal story regarding one (of many) of my buys of NPEC and how the MM's screwed with me. It's never happened since then because I've made sure of it. As far as placing market orders go, there are times I place them to ensure that some shares are purchased at a price I'm willing to pay. For what it's worth, I bought a truckload (for me) a few months ago for $0.018 per share, and guess what....it was a market order! If it makes you feel good go ahead and call me stupid for placing market orders for stock at prices that I'm perfectly willing to pay....I really appreciate the compliment. That's what I get for telling factual story on this $%#&@ thread. Personally, I'm not into name calling, and believe in "live and let live" because there's more than one way to skin a cat. Guess I'll never be a great "trader" like some here but I've done well enough to retire at a very early age so I guess that counts for something. g Dave
