I am curious what hours your broker lets you see the NBBO or order book for Instinet ECN my broker gives me access to Instinet from 3 am to 6:26 pm approx EST I have seen their NBBO quotes sometimes earlier than 3 am and it seems Instinet might have different hours according to their website "Instinet adheres to the following trading schedule: Trading ends at approximately 6:40pm EST and all orders are purged from the system. Trading begins again after approximately 5 minutes at 6:45pm as the next trading day. Friday evening from approximately 6:40pm to Sunday evening at approximately 7:30pm orders will not be accepted by the system but stocks may be quoted."
I now see bids and offers ( NBBO ) starting at 1 am (? ) with my broker but I cannot execute until 3 am in the past I could not even see the NBBO for Instinet until 3 am
is that Instinet is not making a market for any size in the QQQ + SPY this pre am 4:30 am EST perhaps by 6:00 am they will EST
Instinet seems ot be making a market tonight or tomm ( 138 am est ) wonder how come if these quotes are real they were not doing anything yesterday until late morning pre market ( perhaps 6 am )
with all the members on elite trader there is no one who looks at Instinet outside of market hours besides me ?
