Mark, Its not insanity, its the marketplace. Traders will ALWAYS seek to capitalize on market inefficiency. Remember the SOES bandits. More power to them for finding an edge, even for a short time. Current Internet chasers found that traveling in packs was profitable and beat the bid/ask wall. I give them credit for finding a trading "system" that works. Day Traders have no "right" to profit but all investors, traders, institutions have the right to firm quotes and fair market/limit order executions, period. Without that, it's no longer a market, it's a con game. The MMs/NASDAQ have a right to respond to this inefficiency in a reasonable manner, like they did with SOES. But they must maintain a WYSIWYG order and execution system whether they like it or not. Alan
