Quote from LT701:

what a piece of shit

this is completely unacceptable

and of course, the dow makes a big move while it happened

I hear ya, I got 4 contracts shorted at 13300. With my luck, by the time this is fixed, it'll be 13400. This is pissing me off.

What?? It's break time, relax... I was just reading up on exchange resident stops. Currently stop-market orders [YM via IB] are exchange resident, when it goes Globex, stop-limit orders will be exchange resident.. I always worry about which type order is best in a panic exit situation... I would think the market type and that will be simulated by IB when it goes Globex.
