>> what can you see on Quote Com that I can't see on my real time
quote screen? Thanks

I see any new bid and ask prices as they come in

example
ABC stock is trading at...
7 1/8 x 7 3/8
a new bidder comes in wanting
2000 at 7.00

If an additional bidder wants to buy 200 at 7.00 the bid shows
*2200 at 7.00 (note the asterick)

it is shown even if the bid is not at 7. The 7 bidder is in line to buy at the lower price.

APM has a seller at 11.25 for 100 shares, have seen that quite a few times. Does not mean he will get it anytime soon, but the seller keeps removing his sell order then putting it back up for sale at 11.25
the guys just messing around with his net account probably.

Quote.com always shows 2 bids and 2 asks
best bid and bid
best ask and ask
and rt intraday moving chart to go along with the trades

there is a free 20 minute delayed you can view to get the idea
quote.com

service has been for shi* lately though, server down...
cannot get service the first hour or so....that's real bad!!
the close is often bad too.

will watch IRF intraday for ya to see what's going on.
