Hi. I just placed my first stock trades ever today. I had opened an
account
with Ameritrade. I entered 3 buy orders at market price last night, and
they
were executed this morning. Heres the problem: I bought a number of
shares
of INTL. The buy went through at 15.5. However, when I checked the days
high/low price for INTL at 40:00pm, I saw that the days range was 14 5/8-
15
3/8. Naturally I was disturbed to see that I had apparently bought the
stock
for more than the days top price. Furthermore, the two other stocks I
bought
were purchased for the maximum mornings price. The prices were of course
bobbing up and down all morning, but both my other trades happened to go
through at the mornings max price. In light of what happened with INTL,
Im
worried that this may not be a coincidence.
I called Ameritrade, and the rep admitted that this was a problem with
INTL.
However, all he would do is say that he would file a trade proble. |
