If it was real money your late-night trade would have executed at this morning's open... unless my forum clock settings are wrong, I'm seeing more and more of those on this thread.TrueMrP wrote:talking about timing - up 18% today, I wish that was real money.TrueMrP wrote:Bought 7000 shares of 5N PLUS INC (VNP.TO) at 8.35 = 58450.
First transaction, the rest is cash.
If it was real money I would have picked it up durring the trading hours. I've been watching it for a while and after reading the earnings call transcript I decided to pick it up.
Any rules as to when to post the trades? I hope I hadn't breached them by accident.

2 transactions change cash portion....
IIC-T ING 2008-02-28 SELL 250.00x41.00 $10,235.00 (inc. $15 fee)
RSI.UN-T Rogers Sugar 2008-02-28 DIVIDEND $38.33
New cash balance: $79,367.19.
In response to comments about posting trades after hours, I cannot post comments on this site during the trading day. My employer forbids it.
Therefore, after work or weekends, I use the last quote by globeinvestor. It would seem unfair if I took the highest (to sell) or lowest (to buy) using end of day stats and so I chose the last quote.
