Was it a limit order?

How can you offer that advice when you have no idea what his goals are
Using TDAM

It was a limit order as that's the default and I have not messed around with the options there. That may be the issue. I actually didn't know there were different ways to purchase. Looks like I need to study some more.
Yea I am a DA. Big difference in market and limit.
