I think that the fact that the other 1000 shares were busted is certainly helping me. There is no way that they can argue that it wasn't possible to do it.

I sent a letter of complaint to my broker last Friday. I'm waiting for an answer. Of course, I'll let you know the outcome. Here in Montreal, a letter like that is the first step that we're supposed to do. I'm hoping that they will realize that they didn't do what they should have done. That...

You're absolutely right. It's part of the 7.10 rule. It's 7.10(f) to be precise.

I guess there must be a similar rule applying to shares.

Disnat in Montréal, Canada.

Try again. It's fixed.

Another newbie question. Since I'm the victim of a technical glitch of my broker trading platform, can someone tell me if the rule 6.89 applies to the broker? I guess it does. http://nysearcarules.nyse.com/pcx/pcxrules/pcx-rules/chp_1_1/chp_1_1_7/chp_1_1_7_1/chp_1_1_7_1_96/default.asp

It think they know that they did something wrong. I would like to deal with ARCA by myself but they don't allow it. My broker told a few things and there is no way I can verify if it's true without talking to ARCA.

I wrote to ARCA. Here's the answer: "Unfortunately, we cannot discuss trade details with anyone but the sending exchange member. Please submit all inquiries through your broker."

$8.85. It's not really clear what they think. I suspect that they know they did something wrong. When we talk on the phone, our conversation is recorded so they are very careful about what they say. One thing is sure. During the first conversation that I had with them which is just a few minutes...

My broker told me that they allowed the order because the bid was at $6.40. That was close enough of $8.85.

Here's a screen capture of what I described in the above message. The erroneous trade have the words "invalid date" under expiration. All the others transactions have the word "jour" in french which means "day" in English under expiration. It doesn't seem to be normal to me. I've never seen...

Anyone here with an opinion on this? There is one thing that I feel is a bit odd. It's the fact that once my order got filled at $8.85 the confirmation that I received was displaying "invalid date" instead of "day" which is the default option for the platform. All the other orders that I did on...

To make some money! And I did. This erroneous trade is an exception.
