My limit of MAX 3.31 was filled for 3.30 at 500 share. First time I have gotten shares below my
limit.

Credit line increase gives more fuel for deal:

George, thanks for sharing the potential issues for the odd lot order. I also learned a lesson today on trading odd lots.

As RFCG went up on the good news of their clinical trials I decided I may want to take profit now instead of waiting for the $0.35 cash payout. I put a limit order to sell my 1990 shares at $0.33. When I checked the price after coming back from a meeting, the bid/ask was 0.35/0.40 but my order was not filled. That’s when I rememberd your post here about the odd lots. I changed my order to sell 1900 shares at $0.35, it got filled instantly. Now I am holding only 90 shares for the cash payout. In this case, not quite understanding how odd lot works actually saved me some mony.

I looked very hard at this one. The 22 Mil. debt and the top man making 1.5 mil a year was kind of worrysome.
