Brian and Jebj, The stuck L2 quotes are usually a result of the update signal for a particular MM being dropped from the feed. This happens a lot on the 128k feed due to the amount of data coming down the pipe exceeding the data the pipe can contain. On the new feed this does not happen nearly as often as on the 128k feed. Unfortunately, the problem today has caused the IP feed to start fluctuating between up and down for a few seconds at a time. The data that should have come through during the down period is lost (this includes any updates for MM bids/asks), resulting in the stale L2 quote. I am not aware of any plans to drop Comstock. The IP feed, apart from the issue today, works quite well. ~Paul
