It would help if Gox's new UI didn't suck balls.
Every time I go for a market order, it says I don't have enough funds, when I clearly do. It's so frustrating.
By the time I've refreshed the page, and re-entered the same volume of cash that I put in first time, the market has run off without me (again)

If you're putting a market order in because the price is swinging like crazy or just dropped fast, you're likely not going to get filled anywhere near the bottom due to the gox-lag. Count yourself lucky that it prevented you from sending a market order or else your order might have only got there at a price you don't want. and cancelling it would take another lag time.

Also, I don't understand why you are using market orders during any kind of swing. Never use them, its a terrible and stupid thing to do. Place a limit order at the highest price you are comfortable with and it will take the lowest ask (or highest bid) once it gets there.

What frustrates me about the UI is that I have exactly 0.71480550 BTC, and when I type in that I want to sell 0.71480550 BTC, it says I don't ahve enough funds to proceed.

THAT is why the new UI sucks. Oh, and also how you can't copy/paste values any more. That makes everything so slow.

Also, copy paste does work and you should make sure you don't have any opened or pending orders.
