Man, the market must really suck if all people can find to talk about here are grammar and spelling errors... Let me re-post something that I posted three times on SI in two different daytrader-related forums (and never got a single response). What do you guys think about the changes in day-to-day trading activities when SuperSoes (Nasdaq National Market Execution System), SuperMontage (Nasdaq Order Display Facility) and decimalization are all fully implemented? How do you think a market maker's day day-to-day world will change when these three systems are finally implemented? Easier/Harder? Faster/Slower? More or less complexity? More or less profitability? How about for individual day traders? Easier/More Difficult to execute in fast market conditions? Better/worse fills? Harder/easier to apply realtime TA to charts? What about the changes to the way institutions and hedge funds get executed? How about smaller B/Ds? Will there be a wave of consolidation or will they all get their piece of the pie and be profitable? What about software changes to existing direct access trading platforms and execution routes? If speed to the queue for a limited number of shares will be the issue, will people with slow ISPs/platforms have less of a chance of making money? Take a moment to tell us how you think the new systems will change the way everyone trades. Dave
