I would also appreciate confirmation of this. Is the 5 minute rule gone?? Does this apply to ETFs also??
Yes, I'd like a link to a statement from the exchange pointing this out if someone has one. So far the few firms I've contacted have not adjusted for this change, and don't seem to know about it.
Now that alot of exchanges are going public I suspect that all fees and commissions will keep going up so they can beat estimates and the insiders can get filthy rich from their stock grants, as the consumers get the shaft, ah yes you gotta love the free markets.
Read the post that started this thread guys. It is a copy of the news release posted on the NYSE website, "In conjunction with this filing, the NYSE will eliminate specialist commissions on transactions in their assigned NYSE-listed securities, including exchange traded funds (ETFs), and will implement a transaction revenue sharing program with specialist firms and also reduce specialistsââ¬â¢ fixed costs through the elimination of certain fees[1]. NYSE Arca transaction pricing remains unchanged. " Auto
