Eric, this is something else I didn't know (imagine that!). However, Watley used to display the Island "book", but, no more, as they say it "overloaded" the system, displaying all that "extra" information. wily

Eric, Thanks for the confirmation. I just filled an order outside the inside via ISLD so I knew it worked--and fast! My hunch is that you could always fill with ISLD outside the inside on stocks with reasonable volume--which is the only time you'd need to. I got into it trading Dell where you might have to go one or ticks above the inside ask to get filled. Of course, the solution to the whole cross/lock problem with ISLD is to get a sharper insight as to the bottom on a dip you are trying to buy. If you hit the stall, you can buy all you want if you move really fast. Hesitation is what gets you into cross/lock kills. You let the other guys move first and they will close you out. Rick
