Devastating after hours trade...SCREWED!!

Quote from newwurldmn:

But if I say that I saw Big Foot in the middle of Times Square you would think I was nuts.

I don't believe you because that code is vetted by the SEC and FINRA. They process thousands of orders a day. And you are basing your accusations with your own memory as evidence.

If you really believe this has happend to you, start taking screenshots before you trade. And when it happens again, switch brokers and call a lawyer. It's not us you need to convince.

that sounds reasonable. this was forex, and the quotes on IB are I believe mostly just through Idealpro and there really is no such thing as a last trade.

My convincing was not aimed at IB or traders, it was just targeted towards people who jump to conclusions based on nothing more than what is normal.

I like the part about the Bigfoot in Times Square.

I'm over it. Not sure what vetted means, not sure if forex is vetted by anything, but I guess they just nailed some big bank on something so I guess somebody is vetting something.
 
Quote from PlinytheTrader:

So what your saying is that logical and scientific people should believe in bigfoot? Maybe no one has actually seen a bigfoot b/c it is in fact impossible to see one? There are a lot of things in this world that I have not experienced but some things are possible and some things are plain impossible, but most of those things would fall under the highly unlikely category. It is possible to have a broker make an error on a trade, however to have the broker purposely do this routinely for their own gain is highly doubtful. But each individual has their own opinion I guess.

what the hell is it you don't understand you illogical unscientific oaf? I'm not talking anything about believing, I'm only talking about unbelief. Big Diference! Why don't you trash that wikipedia and get youself a job selling Britannica and buy a set.

What's happened to the world today? Doesn't anybody ever get educated?

Did I ever say logical people should believe in anything? And it has been pointed out many times on this site, logic is not my forte, (what that means I don't know because I am musician and all I know about forte is "play it loud.") But I can read a simple post on the internet and somehow manage to grasp the meaning at least at a sixth grade level of comprehension.

So the answer to your penetrating question is "no."

We're talking about a fluke limit order where the limit gets changed and there's nothing you can do about it. The audit trail shows your order at a different price than you entered.

I call BS. Come on, prove it. I don't understand how you can possibly believe you entered an order a particular price and it shows up as a different price in the audit trail. The simplest and most logical explanation is that you made some subtle error during order entry. It has happened to me numerous times and I don't bitch about it. So stop whining unless you have some proof.

am I whining? Go back and read the posts. Is there even one where I whine? Are you another one who can read but can't comprehend?

Let's turn it around, Put the burden of proof on you. Quote me one time when I am whining and I will submit to you as a superior reader. You sure as hell can't post, maybe you can read, but I doubt you can comprehend.

Uh, you bear the burden or proof, unfortunately, attesting to your eyesight ins't adequate. I've been with IB >13 years and over 100k orders (personal and OPM) and never experienced the issue you state.
 
I have a rule, if it's over eight pages I either read every post or just assume whatever I have to offer has already been posted and just stay out of it.

I was being abducted by aliens before you ever put on your first margin trade. They were the ones who told me to get long and I didn't believe them because people like you told me it wasn't possible.

Proof? Just look at how much money I have now believing skeptics like you and compare it to how much I would have had if I had believed the aliens.

My eyesight was just fine until they started messing around with it. But I know what I saw. At one time I saw corn trading at $1.60 a bushel. But nobody believes me, that's because I sold it all at $5.00. I had statements, but that was before digital and they were paper, and times got tough, and when the Sears Catalog quit coming in the mail we had to use something in the outhouse.

If that isn't proof I don't know what is.
