jumper - Also watch island MM on bid , if you try to buy between the spread , and island = ( datek ) is setting on bid they will jump the bid up so you can't by !!!!! If you place a buy order between the spread, it shows up on ISLD as the new bid. That's not Datek jumping the bid up, it's your bid showing up. If ISLD ticks the bid up again above yours, it's another buyer willing to pay more than you Island is not a MM - it's a machine.
