I recommend you send them an email. It's especially frustrating to miss out on executions on stocks starting a quick upward move on an announcement like today's for CGIH. Were it not for my Waterhouse backup account, I would have missed out on adding to my CGIH holding. Depending on the size of the trade, it could mean $1000's. It's penny wise, but pound foolish to look at only commissions when choosing a broker. Large spreads and poor executions can hurt you far more, especially with larger trades.
