As I posted earlier, we will vote with our order flow, which will be
away from the specialist. A good way to get a specialist in hot water
is to complain to the public company itself. A specialist is appointed
by the company to make a market in its stock. Should enough people
complain to CVH, they may take action. Canslimers will run into these
problems time and again, as I always suggest, take the high road.

Ed, why suggest malfeasance and not file a complaint?

Subject: RE: [CANSLIM] CVH
We had our representative on the NYSE floor go and speak with the
specialist - he hid behind "order imbalance" - floor rules. We were
asked if we wanted to file a complaint - we decided no. There will be
many more battles like this. What is does do is make us look at
alternatives. Like I mentioned in an earlier post - Island and other
ECN's would have given us a fill around 32.50. So we are exploring our
execution options. Our CANSLIM philosophy is broken down into three
simple parts: Analysis, Money Management and Execution. This time, the
3rd element, execution, was the weakest link. So , instead of
complaining about it, we are doing what American's do best, head to the
competition with a better product.

I got caught in this so-called CVH inbalanced. luckily i had a limit
order
in place. although limit orders don't work sometimes- because they don't
have to execute limit orders, although they are within the price window.
of
course. there were too many eyes on CVH. i was curious what kind of
remedy
is there for this specialist's malfeasance, especially for buyers @
34.50
and above- more than 10 minutes after placing their market orders. david
