ok I bought 14 shares of yhoo at 13.14

and i put my stop at 33.90 risking .23

cents a share.

I understand the commission for buying the stock, but <b>why did i get charged a commission for setting a stop that might not even get executed?</b>

krazy

do you have the elite version or basic?

i find it funny that my stock has not moved a PENNY sense I bought it. Its been at 34.17 all day long...even when i hit refresh, it does not change... is scottrade's quotes delayed or something?
