Will Amex trading OTC be good?

To trade with AMEX your broker has to have a new connection with the AMEX. I think it is called a CMS line?? You are right that there will be slow executions, compared to ECNs and Nasdaq SuperSoes. But the AMEX hopes to make up for this by filling larger orders with a more stable price.

AMEX is not in SuperSoes and will not be in SuperMontage.
AMEX will be reflected in ADF by NASD.

Will the Chicago stock exchange be in supermontage or adf?

 

They have done testing but will not say if they are committing to SuperMontage or not.

They have not said one way or the other for ADF, but I suspect they will not.

 

sorry for this but I could not post earlier...

 

Is the Mid West Exchange the same as the CHX?

I am not sure how they fit in if they are not. Rake (the pot) is correct in the staus of the AMEX and CHX.

 

CHX and MWSE are the same.

ya, those AMEX specialists are really known for giving good fills

 

Thank god the Amex was given a temporary order to stop trading listed stocks.

This past week I traded ESRX on a positive news story -- AMEX was siting there on the ask with huge size and no one could hit them - they held up the stock for a good 30 seconds --

Whats the deal with them showing up in the nasdaq level 2 quote - Will we be able to hit them with Super Montage ???

 

i was hitting the amex using snet and offering out on isld 1 penny higher and getting hit! even though I was averaging 3 cents per trade I was netting 2.2 cents riskless! they need to be reinstated so we can take the free money!
