Alan,

I'm sure the big institutions that run tens of millions of shares per day through those terminals have some heft when they talk to Instinet. It's good business, and it would make sense to listen to firms with that many traders, trading that many shares.

Some small firms used to suspect that big wirehouses had somehow "put pressure" on Instinet to deny them access when their applications were denied; but they would neglect to consider, or choose to forget, that Instinet required certain minimum net capital amounts, business activities, and other qualifications for connectivity.
