To all the smart asses GROW UP and worry about yourselfs.
To all those that where helpful thanks.
It's not really a big deal to me $$$ wise it's more the principle as to how and why this kind of crap is still happening in todays electronic markets.
btw, I trade remote and this is my first prop account ,I've been retail and never had an issue like this in 10 years

not trying to be a smart A$$...serously,independent of breaking the trade. I ran every indicator on this thing and see absolutely no reason to be short this. After 10 years i am guessing you at least havea plan and methodoglogy...what was the short indicator on this?
So what ended up happening? They broke all the original buys and you covered entire position after that for a $750 loss? Doesn't make sense that NYS would go so high outside the market...were other people getting filled on those orders also?
Your market buy order went through an ECN...the specialist had nothing to do with this trade. I've had the same problem with ARCA market orders and because of it avoid the order type on NY stocks.
In fact you are lucky because the last time this happened to me they would't bust it even though it was nearly $2 over the current market.

Not a bad short, but not nearly enough volume.
