<DIV><SPAN class=609502815-12102000><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>I have
a disaster trade problem going right now. Two in a row on e*Trade. I
used to use the Power Etrade page with no preview of the order. Not
anymore I get the preview with the order details on it including the time and
bid/ask price. I back my browser up and then save the page if there is a
problem. Got one this morning execution 3 points off the price which is
about 10 minutes time wise. Nine years as a stockbroker I never had
a problem with an out. If you are out your are out.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

Disaster trade<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Had a trade go wrong and wonder if I should do
anything. I placed a limit buy for 138050 on the emini s&p when the
market was at 138100 (to try to get a good fill) at 850:45 AM. Then cancelled
the order at 851:04 AM and got a cancel confirmation. I checked numerous times
for fills and it showed none for 10 minutes. Then they showed me as filled
when the market was trading 137450, about 10 minutes later. I then immediately
marketed out at 137250. I have never lost more than 2.5 pts on a trade, this
was minus 8. The 2 issues for me are a) I was given a cancel confirmation and
b) they did not report the fill for ten minutes. On top of that I usually
reverse off of the pivot line which was 1380, so I would of sold 2 at 1379,
meaning i would of lost 1.5 on one trade but been short at 1379 on a market
that went down to 1349. My broker said I should of known I was filled. Sould I
be upset about this, any ideas?</FONT></DIV>
