Jon,

The rule should not be "trade or move".

It should be "trade".


The rule is trade: Trade for the size shown (under the firm price rule), and move if the MM is not willing to completely fill an order for at least 100 shares more than the size shown. The only legitimate reason for not filling to the size shown is the MM handling a prior order. The presumption is that if the MM has more shares s/he is willing to move at your price, and you have asked for more, then you are entitled to it.

I'm not saying they follow the rule, just that they do have the obligation.

Dan
