Order Failure
Order failure is a broker or firm not carrying out your instructions correctly: a trade not placed, placed late, at the wrong price, or in the wrong amount. When that failure costs you money, the firm may be responsible for the difference.
If any of this sounds like your account, the next step costs nothing: a free, honest evaluation. Tell me what happened or call (719) 783-0303.
Common questions
Order Failure: what clients ask
What is best execution?
FINRA rules require firms to use reasonable diligence to get customers the most favorable terms reasonably available when executing an order. Failing to do so can support a claim.
My online broker's system went down when I tried to trade. Is that covered?
Possibly. Firms are expected to maintain systems that can handle trading demand and to have backup plans. Outages that prevent customers from trading can lead to claims when they cause real losses.
How are damages calculated?
Usually by comparing what happened with what would have happened if the order had been executed correctly: the difference in price, quantity, or timing.
Your move
A free evaluation has no downside other than your time.
Tell me what happened. I will tell you honestly whether you have a case worth pursuing — and every way I can be paid, including contingency: nothing unless you recover.
