Re: Computer froze, lost $2800

Dte, I'm interested in knowing who your friend's broker is and what market was being traded? I didn't hear about any exchange outages on Friday so I'm really surprised something like this could happen. If it was neglect on the part of your broker, take your money elsewhere.

Mcichocki, can you please talk a little about how to hedge in the event of an outage? Thanks.
