Strange that they would split an 800 order?
You had it as a market order?

Market order only for trading the F's/Qs etc for those that might be wondering.You DO NOT put in limit orders on the Fs.

Seems to me that a prudent move would be to buy on a limit set a few cents higher, but within your affordability. That way you won't get burn and just might get filled lower anyway.

Yea, Etrade Pro has little excuses which enable them to get away with not filling some orders in 2 seconds. I've had it happen to me a few times.

Yeah I saw that, but it's good for it to be put out for general consumption.

etrade split a TNA trade on me filling the last half 10 seconds later and higher not on the Fs so far

I'm waiting for the instance when they sell my shares a nickel higher.
