This is an EXCELLENT explanation for us simple, god-fearin' daytraders. <g>

Thanks, but please check out the links and read and hear about the system in all it's glory. I've just tried to give a brief summary. The details look good to me, though.

It also brings up an interesting question about the future role of direct-entry firms like CyberCorp and MBTrading. If we can simply "SuperSOES" an order and get good fills, will we need complex order routing options like those offered by these firms? Any thoughts?

After the implementation of the SuperSOES system, the only value I see in sophisticated order routing systems will be to quickly recognize how many shares to SOES and how many that need to be SNET'ed to non-participating ECN's. Hopefully, all of the ECN's will agree to participate, thus eliminating the need for any fancy order routing. Note that brokerages that also run ECN's such as ARCA and REDI will still have a vested interest in sophisticated order routing system to ensure that the order are routed to their ECN's first among the others at the same price level. This should not adversely affect the trader, however.

In summary, it seems as if this new proposal should simplify the trading process. More time spent analyzing when to buy and sell, and less time spent awkwardly trying to figure out who and how to send your order to the marketplace during a quick market move.

Cheers,
