>>Au contraire...his order showed up as the inside bid, above a bunch of other "chips" (slang for Archipelago orders) on the bid.

So, once his order picked off the offers at and below his bid, he became the bid, right? How long did it take between the time his order showed up until he became the best bid (by buying up the lower asks)?

>>I think Watley has a ARCA display option..check it out

They don't have it--just checked.

Re: Island book. From the way you describe it, it sounds like the ARCA book shows a little more than the Island book as Island I don't think would show the Island bid when it was above the ask. But, then, Island executes so fast, there really wouldn't be time for it. Hey! There's an advantage to slow executions...
