Typed in wrong ASX code

Particularly today! I bought in at 15c and it was as high as 23c for no obvious reason ... :D

Maybe I was supposed to get this one!

You must have typed everything in wrong cause If you bought PDM at PDN price of $10 you would be down a million percent:confused: But if you bought PDN at PDM price youd be a millionaire:confused: 1+1=11:confused:
 
Not quite the same thing. But a few days ago instead of selling (SELL) a stock at a profit, I bought (BUY) the stock again, doubling my holdings and in turn raising my average price. Fortunately only a few cents difference. ALWAYS READ THE PREVIEW SCREEN BEFORE EXECUTING A TRADE.

I did the exact same thing, bought when I meant to sell. Ended up making a slightly better profit but didn't compensate for the fear of god it put into me!
 
One day, after not using my old comsec account for YEARS (2-3 years maybe more), I was messing around with it to see what was new, I wanted to see if was still active, there was no money in my old CBA account since it didn't even exist anymore (so couldn't imagine it would work), so I entered an order and hit the button - well buggar me sideways sally, the sucker immediately went through! Since I live in Japan I didn't even have any cash in Australia anymore either. I had three days to settle and on the last day I managed to transfer some $ into my ST George account and do a B-Pay thing to settle (had to call comsec to get the B-Pay number since the statement would have gone to my old address). Well, turned out good, it was BHP and it went up quite nicely, sold them soon after for a few hundred bucks profit minus comsec's ridiculously high commissions.

Was that a boring story? Sorry. Did I tell you about that day my granmama made me some vege soup and forgot to put the stock in it ....
