We want the orders open as long as possible. Now, it is more work to keep the order open for 12 hours than for 1 hour. Traditionally, limit orders are a day order, good for the entire trading session unless specified otherwise. 2. Today Pete had 13,000/ day on his bid because he was hit for small size. When I tried to place a limit order, the quantity had to be in 5,000 increments of 13,000 (i.e. 3000, 8000, 18000...). I could not overwrite the quantity to be 15,000. 3. Everytime a limit order is placed, an error message occurs on the system saying error trade, price not available. 4. Is there a way to modify a limit order, such as changing the price, without canceling it and resubmitting a new one? If not, this would be a valuable feature. Thx, John
