    Problems with IB stop orders?

    IB stops only work during regular market hrs. (i.e. until 4:00 est). That's probably why your stop wasn't executed. FWIW -- had no problems recently with their stops. (My trading, now that's another story...) Hofferino

    Frustrating Day....

Say the price had gone up to 4484, and then come back down; do you think for one moment that they would have filled...

    The Dreaded NY Markets

    I'd always heard about the "dreaded New York futures markets." Yet I have to be honest that I had a hard time understanding: What could be so terrible? Always trade limit orders, and you'll do OK. I'd like to share two recent experiences that have changed my mind. 1) I was long Cotton...
