If I need to buy some shares asap I go regular fill/partial buys. I use AON to test how many shares really available at a certain level. In many instace, evey MM on L2 only have a couple millios on the ASK. I am not tellig people to go use AON for quick buy, but it can be used as a good indicator of what is happening. Remember when the INIX was hanging around .0011 for a while...I did a AON and it got filled...that is why my wife signal it was time to get out. Guess what? It turned out the company was raising cash and the AS was raised.

That's what I thought.
I stopped using AON when I found I got filled faster and I have only been partially filled twice and I trade enought to know a little bit through experience (20-30 trades a month in different stocks). I also found that making it a day order didn't get filled as fast so I always say 'until cancelled', well Etrade now has a 60 day limit on trades. Might be my imagination, like moving the mouse around helps the computer move faster? I'm not a huge tech guy.
Well, anyway....GO INIX. Today should be a good day. Silver is up several dollars and headed for 50 bucks an oz. Can't hurt that we own a stake in a gold mine. Funny that we do because I am first and foremost, since 1980 and the Hunt brothers, a PM bug. I've waited a long time for these commodity bull years.
