  2. Thank you, Don - an interesting read!
     
  3. Hey Don, I'm really glad you guys are doing this. The whole fragmenting of the equity market is a sham. I'm glad you guys are tackling this problem head on.
     
  4. We are asking for the help of all traders. The SEC is currently accepting comments on the equity market structure. We encourage you to submit your comments and concerns with sub-pennying or any other market abuses via this online form:

    I support this man's comments 1000%.

    I have had the exact same observations day in and day out, and I can only wish that some of this will be heard, understood, and acted upon !

    Any liquidity provider that has been playing the market since 2000 has seen the way they (MM's, brokers, etc) have nibbled away and taken every bit of (unfair) advantage that they could ever wrongly justify.
     

  7. Then you should let the SEC know. If a 100 or so traders post comments it will make a difference in the changes that are made.
