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.
