    hi

    arca charges .001 for routing... it'll route to just about any destination...

    cheers!

    mnx
     
  3. ok. I see.
    if, say, i put a bid at 10 using arca rounted buy, but nyse specialist print at 9.99, does arca automatically route my bid to nyse such that I can get price improvement?

    mnx

    depends on the size of your order.

    If the nyse is displaying 500 shares at 9.99 and you bid 1000 arca routed at 10$, then 500 will route to the nyse @ 9.99 the rest will display on arca @ 10$.

    hope that helps.

    mnx

    you answer confirms my guess. thx

    where do you find above information. I tried arca web, it seems hard to find such information.

    Let's stand on another side, say bid to ask: 9.99 to 10.00. 1000 arca rounted shares on 9.99 posted at 10 o'clock. 1000 nyse shares on 9.98 posted at 9:30. Specialist is going to print 1000 shares at 9.98. then which 1000 shares would be filled, the arca rounted one or nyse one?
