Stops and Specialists

I believe that you can let local software make the trade for
you if you use QuoteTracker and a broker that supports QuoteTracker. Instead of the stop being at the exchange or
the brokerage, it's on your streamer and it executes the trade
when it reaches your stop.

But I know the feeling. You're stop is at $38.9, the price drops
to $39 before going back up and you breath a sigh of relief.
Then the MM sees your stop and goes back down just to grab yours
and then it goes back up. This happened to me once with Boeing.

Hey, a bunch of brokers is getting investigated by the SEC
for putting retail at the end of the queue in the morning
and giving lousy executions. I don't think that anything will
come of this as I think that it's in your brokerage agreement.

You just have to bear in mind that the crooks will take their
pound of flesh and plan accordingly.
