The bid/ask<br>&gt; &gt; &gt; was bid:14, &nbsp;ask:15. Naturally I expected an upward breakout. The<br>&gt; &gt; &gt; breakout came yesterday. The stock ended the day with a bid/ask of<br>&gt; &gt; &gt; bid:16 1/4 &nbsp;ask: 17 1/8. In order to protect against a loss I placed a<br>&gt; &gt; &gt; stop loss order at 16 just prior to the market's opening. To my<br>&gt; &gt; &gt; surprise, 5 minutes after the market opened I received a<br>&gt; &gt; &gt; confirmation call from my broker. My TRDT holding was sold at<br>&gt; &gt; &gt; 16 1/8. As of moments ago TRDT has a bid/ask of bid: 17 5/8,<br>&gt; &gt; &gt; ask: 17 7/8.<br>&gt; &gt; &gt;<br>&gt; &gt; &gt; Did I make an error in judgement with respect to where I set my<br>&gt; &gt; &gt; stop loss given the wide bid/ask spread, or did I just get the shaft<br>&gt; &gt; &gt; from a market maker? Any comments, questions, observations<br>&gt; &gt; &gt; welcome. Thanks,<br>&gt; &gt; &gt;<br>&gt; &gt; &gt; Regards<br>&gt; &gt; &gt; Tim</p>

V 6.5 appears to have a number of new features, and from the publicity it
seems to be a significant improvement. 

Lets hear from the users of V 6.5 before passing judgment
