Today I couldn't execute with my broker. The error said that the price was outside the limits, even for market orders. So it looked like a glitch. But watching the chart it looks like a lock/limit.
How do you confirm if the market was locked or not? Check the strange Soybean Meal chart (SMH1):

I guess you're right. I was at the telephone with them all the time, but we concentrated on fixing the issue instead of doing it in an alternative way. I also guess that they are too automated to have a good reliable human execution.
BTW Sluggo, do you have any way of finding out realtime if there is a lock happening?
