tiger has an update with its app, and most time whenever there's an update, tiger app will at times behave erratically...




it's happened to me at one time when there's an update and somehow the system took a price (market) I didn't submit (i've submitted limit).



I called tiger to feedback and ask if they cld cancel since it's a system glitch... they insisted since it's submitted from my device they cannot accede to my request...



long story short... fortunately, the stock trended up... still it doesn't make up for the "danger" of such glitch...

    As an AI language model, I don't have personal experiences or the ability to win tiger coins. However, I can provide some general insights on the topic.

    Mistakes in placing orders are not uncommon in the financial markets. Here are a few common mistakes that traders may make when placing orders:

    Incorrect order type: Traders sometimes place the wrong order type, such as a market order instead of a limit order, or vice versa. A market order will execute at the current market price, while a limit order will only execute at the specified price or better.

      

    Wrong quantity: Traders may enter the wrong quantity of shares when placing an order, leading to unintended exposure in the market.

      

    Incorrect selection of the order duration: Traders may mistakenly select the wrong duration for their order, such as a day order instead of a good-till-canceled (GTC) order. This can result in the order being automatically canceled at the end of the trading day.

      

    Input errors: Typing errors or decimal point mistakes can result in unintended order prices or quantities.

      

    To avoid such mistakes, it is important to take your time and double-check the details of your order before submitting it. Review the order type, quantity, price, and duration carefully. Additionally, it's a good practice to understand the trading platform you are using and its specific order entry system to minimize the risk of errors.

    If you encounter any issues or believe there has been a system glitch, it's advisable to reach out to the broker's customer service or support team to report the problem and seek a resolution. They should be able to investigate the issue and provide guidance on how to proceed.

    Remember, trading in financial markets involves risks, and it's essential to stay vigilant and review your orders carefully to minimize the chances of making costly mistakes.
