Hello All,

Guys if someone could tell me how the following scenario would work in real
life - i mean actually using the money and waiting for Fills:

SAY the share costs $20 and stock is highly volatile (daily avg. Vol.  500,000
),
and AVg. Tick volume is say 1000 shares. 
HOW FAST (APROXIMATELY) MY ORDER WOULD FILL. I ve paper traded with real time
data like this :
1) When I decided to enter I act like puting an market order in the computer
and send to my broker ( in order to get the most accurate price that I moght
of get if that was for real I WAIT 4-8 SECONDS and then check what is the
price given to me by my real time FEED . Now on average i take correction for
slippage etc. so wait couple of seconds and then assuming that got that price
. NOW
ANY COMMENTS OR SUGGESTIONS HOW TO BETTER AND MORE ACCURATE PAPER TRADE , AND
GOALS AND WAITNING TIME DO I NEED TO CONSIDER ??Please tell me based on Your
experience, how fast do the orders usually fill and what IT USUALLY DEPENDS ON
THE MOST ??
- I know its the price and time first, but after that ??
- Volume ?

Simply saying is there ANY tip or method i should apply to get my results more
accurate ??

Thank You very much for Your support !

Regards Thomas-
