I am with you Mr. B. I posted something earlier on that topic. I don't think someone would buy $50 worth of GZFX. Go big or go home. JMO

Mr. B
Some online brokers, like Ameritrade, Scott Trade, etc. "guarantee" that your trade ( usually the "market trade") will go through within 60 seconds, or else it's free.
To satisfy this condition, they let a small amount go through
( 5000 at sub-penny for example). Now you've paid the fee for this small trade, and what do you do when the MMs move the Bid/Ask out of your trade range? Most people swear, scream, and question the parentage of the MMs!

JMO,

Mr.B they really aren't 5000 share trades. i have had orders in for say 100,000 they fill 5,000 first then the remainder later. my feelings are they then use all the 5,000 shares to move (manipulate it higher or lower on those small share lots.
