Hi, Dick,

Yes, crappier is a very appropriate word used in that context!

Another thing that's not commonly known is that Fido sells order flow, so you're guaranteed a crappier fill on stocks that they don't make a market in.... (is "crappier" a word ?)

Dick,

That doesn't make me happy. Interesting information though. I wonder if Fido sells order flow to Knight Securities. Fido uses it for INTC fills (which are always extremely rapid, though always at the ask (on a buy order) and never in between bid/ask). Thanks for the knowledge.

Best,
Gary Korn
