Jeffrey,

I am also sorry to see Island stop the access to quotes. It is difficult to receive criticism when you are providing a free service but that is life on the internet. There are whiners and complainers that just do it to read their own posts. They should be ignored even though it is difficult.

I have been a reader and sometime poster to both the Datek & Island threads since they were started. There are some valid questions that speak for many of us. Most good ones seem to me to be how the market functions. It may not be your job to educate us, but the information you can provide is very helpful. Details on how a trade is executed helps level the field for those of us with less experience.

Knowing what trades are sitting on Island has affected my order pricing and I will miss that capability. I hope you reconsider and continue to provide access. Ignore the complainers and their sarcasm, accept the thanks and valid questions.

Regards,

Bob
