HI LIZ!

It's late and i had some wine but i'm not totally clear on this...
"The key here is to place limit orders, not all or none.
market makers have to reflect your bid/offer."

So to buy at or close to a bid price of e.g.20 you enter a buy limit for 20 1/16 which might be filled for 20 1/16 or better =20. Same thing for sell with a ask of 20 5/8: you enter a sell order of 20 9/16 which will sell at 20 9/16 or 20 5/8.

Is that the way you play these spreads?
Sorry for such a basic question...i hope you don't mind!
