MARKET PRICE

I once placed a trade at "market". I knew the stock was going to shoot up.

The stock shot up.I had a few thousand dollars in my account. A trade went thru somehow -- I purchased about $56,000 in shares !!

When I realized what had happened -- the stock had dropped and I had lost substantial money -- I contacted Ameritrade to alert that somehow these shares were purchased, not when I placed the order, with the funds I had -- but late --after the stock rose with funds I did not have.I got no relief or assistance.

I was not as upset about not earning $50 K --I was afraid of the $8k I now owed Ameritrade.

I thought -- how do "I" fix this --so I short sold the shares as

the stock dropped.

Beware of market.
