What does it mean when a Stock Trade is stock trade Queued?

Question

I'm a beginner at buying stocks and purchased my first stock today at Scott Trade Sat morning. How long does it take from it being queued to be completed? Does it take longer on a weekend than a regular business day?

Answer 1

It's queued because it is in line to be processed, it hasn't gone through yet.



It will stay that way until Monday morning, because no stock market is open on the weekend.



If you know that little about the stock market I'm kind of scared that you are investing in it. What'd you buy?

Answer 2

It means your order is ready to be submitted for that many shares at that price. IOts sort of like being off-stage waiting for your queue to go on and perform.



One of the mistakes "newbie" traders - those without any experience or knowledge - make is "just diving-in with both feet". You need to learn about the stocks or companies you are thinking about investing in.



BELIEVE ME: You're going to be be bombarded with LOTS of "tips" from LOTS of "sources".



By having a set of trading rules for the stocks you are thinking about investing in, You stay out of trouble and avoid losing money.



IF you don't have trading rules AND follow them AND "tweak" them, you'll make more mistakes and lose more money than you'll earn.



Investigate the different investments you have available to you. Make THE BEST investment you can: Invest in yourself - your own education. Once you have that knowledge, no one can ever take it away.



In the beginning “newbie” traders & investors DO NOT INVEST any money. It probably won’t be long when you’ll feel you’re ready to invest your hard-earned money. Before taking that step, you really should do research about what you are investing in.



You should LEARN HOW:

A] the stock market works. B] to invest in many, many various ways. C] to properly trade

D] Properly manage the money in your trading account.



"Newbie" investors & traders ALWAYS make mistakes. In fact, throughout a person's trading, he/she makes mistakes.



In the beginning, you READ & LEARN about the market & how it works: Read "Investing for Dummies" As you read & do research about the investments you are interested in, sometimes you'll come across a financial or investment term you never heard before.

You can usually find excellent, easy-to-understand definitions of many financial & investment terms by going to Investopedia’s dictionary.



It also has a free, paper trading platform. You can set up a virtual account & almost trade as though you were trading with real money.

THIS IS NOT SPAM: I DO NOT know this man. I am not associated w/ him in any way. I know of him & the wonderful book he wrote. You should invest in a copy of

“The Richest Man in Babylon” by George S. Classon. You can get the book on http://amazon.com

Its easy to read & follow. You can write in it & make notes in it. Simply read five [5] pages of this book - or any book - each and every day.

OR You can leave it on the shelf, on a table or on the floor & let it collect dust.

Penny stocks don’t cost much money and promise big profits. But trading penny stocks is also a good way to lose money.



Sure, it’s possible to profit when you understand the game. Learn here https://tr.im/O4jq5



For investors who can’t afford shares of Google or Apple, the potential gains from trades like this are too good to pass up. So penny-stock trading thrives. With a relatively small investment you can make a nice return if the trade works out.

the best trading software http://tradingsolution.info

i have attended a lot of seminars, read counless books on forex trading and it all cost me thousands of dollars. the worst thing was i blew up my first account. after that i opened another account and the same thing happened again. i started to wonder why i couldn,t make any money in forex trading. at first i thought i knew everything about trading. finally i found that the main problem i have was i did not have the right mental in trading. as we know that psychology has great impact on our trading result. apart from psychology issue, there is another problem that we have to address. they are money management, market analysis, and entry/exit rules. to me money management is important in trading. i opened another account and start to trade profitably after i learnt from my past mistake. i don't trade emotionally anymore.

if you are serious about trading you need to address your weakness and try to fix it. no forex guru can make you Professional trader unless you want to learn from your mistake.

Answer 8

you can only purchase stock during normal market hours

9:30AM-4:30PM Eastern time. Any stocks ordered at another time will be "Queued" until the markets open next



If you put in multiple orders trying to see why things aren't trading, you could end up with a lot more stock than you bargained for.

Answer 9

It will be executed in the first two minutes after the stock market opens, assuming it's a market order.

Answer 10

You'll be ok



You entered the order when the market wasn't open, but the firm accepted the order and has in que (ready to be entered) and right before the market opens the order will be forwarded for entry or execution.

When an order is in que, it's just in line waiting to be processed,



Normally, when the market is open, the order would have been processed or entered on the book of the market maker or specialist



You should check on Monday when the market is open, and if the order was filled, (executed) or is it an "open order"



If you entered the order with not time limit, the order will be only a day order, if you entered it as GTC the order will remain open until it's executed or until you cancel it.



Relax, you'll be fine,

Hope I satisfied you with this response

Answer 11

Hey there,

You should try with Penny Stocks Trading (you can find more info here: http://pennystocks.toptips.org )



Penny stocks, also known as cent stocks in some countries, are common shares of small public companies that trade at low prices per share.

I've been subscribing to this PennyStock web site for about a year now and have loved the objective advice they give. He really does look for quality stocks and I've made some pretty nice profits on a lot of his suggestions. Being still fairly new to investing I have been dabbling a lot in penny stocks to try and grow my account. I may not have a big account, but it's a lot bigger than it was a year ago. On just one of Nathan's picks this year I managed to make my investment back ten-fold! Be careful! Penny stocks are notoriously risky but if you follow the right method the risk is almost 0. I suggest to invest only little money first and then reinvest the profits. This is the site I'm using: http://pennystocks.toptips.org
