Screen capture for safeguard Re: [RT] S&P Disaster trade

["Paula" <hotair003@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is why I swear by using a screen capture 
utility. Long ago something similar happenned
to me on equities  and the only proof I had was the 
screen capture of the trading interface.
Showed everything I needed to tell them "forget 
about it".

  Dig

      IF you have a cancel confirm, you are out of the 
      trade.  Ask for the time stamp on the trade and then compare it with 
      the time stamp on the cancel confirm.  One way or the other, you are 
      entitled to an out or an adjustment.  If you received the cancel 
      confirm before the trade confirmation, it is the brokers problem, not 
      yours.  I hope that this wasn't electronic and that you have a record 
      of each event and the times that they occurred.  Proof is what it 
      takes.  Somehow, proof seems to disappear in electronic trades when 
      it is to the brokers advantage.  good luck.  Ira

        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
