Well, what REALLY happened was, I was just sitting here working on some
stuff and suddenly TS started beeping!!! Was completely unprepared. Not very
professional, I admit. Also note that I had some problems getting the date
right when I first updated the pages yesterday. Guess i was distracted!
Amazed/distressed as I was, I picked up the phone and exited the trade. Also
notified the list immediately. You can check the price and time. There are
real-timers who will vouch for me.
So I apologize for the clerical error, but the system shows the trade as
exited, and that's what I did, and I notified everybody at the time (in fact
the price went a bit higher for a while), so the record will stand. Either
that or I'd have to CHANGE the system to work WORSE!
I am very sorry if anybody didn't get the email when I sent it. In case
anybody took the trade, I would now recommend exiting ASAP, and I guess you
won't make as much as you could have on it. Sorry about that.
