Last Post for me on this subject. See Knight statement as to how they do business (from their Website): As a market maker, Knight/Trimark performs the essential task of buying shares when retail or institutional customers want to sell and selling shares when they want to buy. Orders are sent via computer or phone to Knight/Trimark -- all of which are processed in a matching environment where incoming orders are compared against the company's large limit order book. If Knight/Trimark holds a matching order (e.g., sell order for a buy order and vice versa) a trade is made.
