I used to think the same thing. With the amount of liquidity out there, it isn't too difficult to buy at the bid and sell at the ask. You just have to sit there and wait to get filled--usually less than 15 seconds. With JPR you don't have to just rely on buying at the bid and selling at the ask. You can always sell at ISLD's highest bid, even if its not at the inside bid. You can always buy from ISLD at ISLD's lowest ask, even if that price isn't at the inside ask. ISLD has a lot of liquidity. ISLD is almost always very close to the inside market. If ISLD is not close to the inside market, you can always beat the competition out there and post the highest bid to buy and post the lowest ask to sell. You'll often get taken out very fast. If you are dealing with a lower volume security and you want in or out right now, just use Selectnet and go after the nearest market maker. Otherwise post a very high bid or post a very low ask and wait it out. It should not take long. If they move their price on you and you don't get a fill, then use SOES on them.
