I use Yamner. I didn't place any trades through them today, but I know a couple of folks who did and they didn't have to wait more than 2 rings. I don't use Level II, though, just Mach6, Medved's Quote Tracker, and three or four feeds that don't innundate me with useless or late information. SEG's rise said MXTR and WDC were going to be decent longs, and CNKT was a decent play this morning, but I didn't do LCOS or GNET or INSP or any of the 20 pointers. I didn't for a couple of reasons, one of which was uncertainly as to how long the bounce would last and how far it would go. But I watched, and I learn. This isn't the only big tanking we are going to have in the internets, and it certainly isn't the last. The markets are still deep in the red and could very well turn worse this afternoon. If it tanks again tomorrow, or in a week, ora month, there will be other buying opportunities that we can take advantage of. One thing iscertain, I am going to stay less overnight any more. And i might forget my threshold and move the rest of the mutuals to safer havens tomorrow if its an up day. one thing is odd -I don't see the volume on a lot of thestocks I expected to see when I hear about all the people unable to get quotes, etc. My gut feeling is that the mm's and the services are backing away from providing that access to prevent getting themselves killed. Just a thought, though, as I will have to wait for the numbers later to see what the volume is running for the morning. But if it is lower than other major dip days, you might want to broach that with your providers... lastshadow
