Jon,

They are located in the same building. They have physical contact with each other.

It is a joke that they would avoid contact.

Do you remember the case of Emanuel Friedman of Friedman, Billings, and Ramsey?

He was forced to drop out of the firm because of such a situation.

Of course it goes on all the time.

"I was told years ago the banks and brokerages kept their trading arms separate from their retail arms to avoid conflict with their clients"

I always figured they used their clients assets as leverage for their own trading profits. There is a separation but its quite obvious but when you see Broker XYZ come out with a big upgrade and see Market Maker XYZ flooding the ask on L2 what these folks are up to.
