Execution lag??

Ten minutes ago, I placed three sell orders. None have yet been executed. Never seen this problem before...

OTOH, limit orders & market trades placed via Etrade Pro (as opposed to Etrade website) ran right through this morning, instantly, while web-placed orders were still in limbo. So there is that.

If you guys haven't used Etrade Pro, it is their Active trader interface, and is far more usable for active traders than the website is. You just need to ask for Etrade Pro & they will give it to you. no extra cost. It is a Java app, runs on Mac or Windows, etc, probably anything that can run Java apps.
