Close yesterday was .36. I put in buy order * .36 before market opened this morning. Opened at .47. My order is still open, why didn't it execute, or will it? Sorry for such a newbie question.

It opened higher than your buy order. At the time the market opened, no one was willing to sell for less than .47 The only way it will execute is if we have a drop today.

Basically, the MMs will only fill "guaranteed" at the ask, which right now is .62. Now I say "guaranteed" because sometimes you can get filled somewhere between the bid/ask or even at the bid but your chances are much, much lower.
Occasionally it's even hard to get filled at the ask if the MMs are in a short squeeze.
Your order should have filled now.
EDIT: Basically with a limit order, you're saying "fill me at my price or LESS"
2nd edit: That's why market orders are so dangerous. Because you fill at whatever the ask is, and the MMs can partially fill you at the ask, move the ask up, partially fill you again, move the ask up, etc etc. Also the same in reverse when selling. Scottrade wont even allow market orders on pinks/pennies, and other stocks under $1

Man no kidding, and high class bashers at that. Looks like they shorted a lot more today, which would explain the increase in volume yet little movement of the share price. Expect them to start popping up here soon. Man....

What are the "bashers" saying? Certainly another opinion with merit should be entertained.

That's the problem Wallace. They're not "saying" anything. They're just posting, every other post, just screaming "scam" "fraud" etc. No facts to back up anything. Just innuendo and scare tactics. In other words, classic bashers.

Yep they're real scared. The IHub board is now full with bashers. Obviously some people are betting against the company going ahead with the dividend, and are containing the price with shorted shares. Can't wait to see them proved wrong.

I would still be interested in what they are saying in their posts. Apparently Downs has had a brush with the law? Why hide potential input? All information is important when it comes to making a stock decision.

Who the F cares what the bashers have to say (except you Wallace)? You want their 100% negative opinions go to the IHub or RB boards. Let's keep this a for-IDWS thread, and not an anti-IDWS thread.

Don't be a fool, explorer. To shut your eyes to valid information is just asking for trouble. That's what happened to cult members on the CMKX threads. They got sucked up in their dreams and hopes and lost almost all if not all. Now, I am willing to bet I own more of this stock than you and would want to hear the bad with the good. I have 30K shares that I bought at .161 do you?
PS: And please do not refer to me as a "basher" or even begin to make such an absurd implication! Thank you.

All I'm saying here we focus on the relevant. You want to focus on the irrelevant, go to RB and IHub. Do you have a problem reaching them?

Yes, I do have a problem reaching them, since I never have visited there. Second, all valid information is relevant. If it is truth, it must be part of the consideration in buying, selling and/or holding. Now, if you want me to bash, I will bash an ignorant attitude toward investing. What the hell do you know about relevant or irrelevant when it might be factual....and, therefore, pertinent. You obviously do not want to hear it. That is ignorant.
