Same thing happened to me once. I had a buy order for 100 shares splitting the spread and I got 1 share and then the spread returned to normal. Who the hell would sell me one share??? the MM?

How did you know MM do that to your order? I seriously doubt any credibility on this sort of claim. Certainly, the option of ALL/NONE would be a plus for ISLAND.

Market Makers rarely send us orders for less then 100 shares. If you read my previous posts, you will see that there are some new features that solve the odd lot problem. Many of our clients are in the process of, or have made the required changes to their systems to take advantage of these new features. P.S. The majority of orders recieved that are under 100 shares come from indiviual investors like yourselves Jeffrey Citron The Island ECN . . . the power to move the market
