I want everyone to know that Bank of America has the worst -market order- system that I have ever witnessed...Yes you get 30 free trades a month and that is great...The platform is the most un-advanced that I have ever seen...

I put in a market order for ~DIG~ (a huge position)seven minutes after the bell...the price was 25-26 per share...It took them almost 10 minutes to execute that order and I ended up getting filled at 30.60...If you look at the intra day chart,I recieved the worst possible price in the entire 15 minute period...Yeah its my fault,I should have put a limit order in,but I had no idea it would take them almost 10 minutes to fill a market order when every other time it only takes a minute...I am beyond pissed because it was a huge order...thousands of dollars in the blink of an eye,when I should be up...Over one million shares were traded as my order was put in...They are supposed to call me back after review,but Im sure there will be no retribution...Lesson learned...no more market orders with BOFA...

I still like ~DIG~ at these levels but that is beside my point...
