Re: BMY - Brumby Resources
Hey adobee,
I thought I'd jump in and have a crack at buying some too since my only parcel was at 36c and thought it was a good chance to average down before any potential move happens (here's hoping!)
They told me the same thing - I only wanted 16000 at market and there was a seller at 0.07 but because the price had already moved 20% for the day they wouldn't put my order through (would have made it a 40+% move for the day) - said I'd get it Monday morning. Then when I checked this morning, my order had gone through but at 0.08 even though there was an opening trade at 0.07.
I'm pretty pissed off even though it's only chickenfeed difference, but it's pretty crap if you ask me![Mad :mad: :mad:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
The response from COMsuK is as follows -
"All brokers that operate on the ASX have an obligation to maintain an orderly market. As such, we may not be able to execute a market order if it increases or decreases the price of the specific stoxk by a large ammount. If you placed a market order, and the order did not execute immediately, it would be monitored by our dealers who will keep your order at the top of the queue, and execute the order under circumstances that are in line with our obligations to the market."
So this means as the highest seller is far away they will just keep my order at the top of the queue ???
This does not seem right Ie Yesterday I put a buy in to take out all available shares.. at 6-7c but instead they put my offer in at 5.8c and leave it sitting there .. four hours later it is still sitting there but the sell side has changed from 6c to say 6.4 ????
I am not up on the 'Orderly mArket' rules but it seems crazy that I cant buy the shares at the price they are offerred..
