This is not a case of the price changing between when I submitted a trade and it actually executes. I recently tried to buy a number of penny stocks with the intent of just letting them ride and I bought small increments to avoid causing the price to adjust. For instance, I bought 15,000 shares at 0.01 (several times, several different MovieStocks). My portfolio says I paid 0.01 per share and it has a value of 150. My trade history says I got the stock at 0.01 but it cost 450.
So Is this to be expected? How does HSX figure commissions?
