That is because the 100 shares you are buying are most likely coming out of MM inventory on thin issues and not a crossed trade between retail buyer and seller as is done on the NYSE. It is not a myth - ask the NASD. The question is what the total "NYSE like" volume really is. I think some NYSE volume gets double counted too when the specialists take the other side of the trade, but they typically cross trades.
