whoa error account...sounds new to me.

by the way, i thought we tend to make mistake during rush hour (peak market), haha!
Then tell me which counter you are going to sell next time.
There are a lot of people purposely Q in those low liquidity low volume counter that haven't many sellers and buyers between one, they always Q like when last done is 9.00 then buyer Q at 7.95 (like F&N) case, or last done 7.50, Q 6.45. etc. It is like 'fishing' game.
This is not once this has happened, it happened many many times. Once it is become severe on one case, that some one mistakenly key in more than 1000 lots, wrong price with wrong lot! causing several hundred K of cost.
That's why online trading portal doesn't allow retailers to have direct connection which all online trading orders are being routed to broking server first then only re-direct to KLSE trading system. There is a limit of the online trading site that allow one to key in how many lot also. More than that or credit limit, it doesn't allow it to go through. As they afraid someone mistakenly key in it. Even when we type sometime talk about 1,000 share then become 1000 lots.
