RE: Self Directed banking , TD Frustrating, unable to place a buy order either by market, or as a limit , said had to call to place the order. In the past , was able to place an order using limit order but not market.
Previous to the RS , was told the limit purchase was to prevent market manipulation as the system picked that up as we well know the last few months of pain.It`s a failsafe in place to protect investors. Post RS , with the RS happening just today , the system needs to reset could take a few days before the lesser share count is deemed non manipulative , or something very close to that. At that time, a purchase or sell order should go through regularly at market or limit without the need for calling in to place the trade.
Not sure if this applies to all online self directed investing accounts , but that was TD`s explanation. All shares rolled in for RS on my TD were competed by market open.
Side note, wow, is it nice to be green after months of red. Believing we have turned the corner here. Congrats to all that held through the painful past months. SZ and James , let`s show `em!
Good luck everyone.
