Hi guys, I remember some of you commenting on some of your sells and buys being completed at the top price for the day or low price for the day. Came across this at Bogleheads that may explain this.

It seems these high speed traders may be tripping your GTC orders. Don't you hate it when you sell at the top price because someone is fishing for trades.
