Any decent interface should have an order summary page 
with the times of all tranactions, cancels etc. It should be able to be printed. 
PFG Best Direct has some problems with up time, especially last week, but at 
least they have this.

  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".

        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? SMC
