I am not able to trade during the work day so I usually use limit orders =
when I purchase a stock.  I don't like to give out a an order to buy a =
stock at the market price before the opening bell.  So today, I set a =
limit order to buy 150 shares of a stock (NASDAQ exchange) today at =
$36.00.  Around 11AM, the stock price declined from an opening price of =
36.93 to 36.001 and the buy order was never executed. =20

What do you make of my tale.
