That sounds like UMS is taking hold. 
In the stock market, correct me if I am wrong, being new to this and all, but how do you lose money if you buy and hold until you hit a minimum amount of profit before selling? Let's say I buy a stock at $815 a share and then set a limit order to sell it if and only if the price goes above $1,025 per share. If my brokerage kills this order after 2 months, then I can't lose... this would mean you basically buy into a number of different stocks and just wait for them to appreciate a specific minimum amount, and then sell.
Am I missing something?
