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. |

Someone was recently asking about the company that makes DVD. One that
Im aware of is Nimbus CD Intl (NASDAQ: NMBS). They will be investing
$25 million to setup DVD manufacturing facility. They are currently
manufacturing CD and CD-ROM, and have strong and improving earnings.
They were featured in one of the articles in IBD on Thursday May 23.
They are not into the DVD players, but the discs themselves. Check it
out. They are also a premier company with technique to prevent CD/CD-ROM
piracy, so they might attract a lot of big companies that want to cut
losses due to copying. |
