This is an interesting conversation.  I am not sure what "Island" and
"ECN's" are.  If you have the time to enlighten me it would be much
appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Ed, I appreciate your Americana theme. But what happened in CVH today is
not a good thing. Of course you probably part of the old buddy system of
brokers protecting each other. But filing complaints is a heck of a lot
better than facing litigation. david 


 

 

Ed, why suggest malfeasance and not file a complaint?

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
