Last I heard, the NYSE was aiming for decimal based trading starting around this July. Now we can shoot for penny spreads <ggg>.

Regards,
John

Steve, if by "whole numbers" you really mean decimals, then
the answer is YES

SS, They are going to decimal based trading. Dollars and cents. That sounded real good to me. My RT does decimals. I turned the feature on and used it for a while. I switched back to fractions. I found the fractions are really easier to see then decimals when scaning a screen with 20 stocks on it.
