Thats kinda what I was thinking. Have a question as I am new to investing. I was going to have two buys set up prior to the opening uing my "available money in my account" and decided to cancel them..for a short period of time it said I didn't have any funds to trade with. Okay, understandable they were pending. Now, it says I have the money I had origionally but when I try to make an order it says they haven't settled yet?? Why is this?
