Thanks for the info AlienTech. I already trade through datek. If they avoid trading through MM, who makes the money the MM would have otherwise made? Datek?? Is that how they can run a profitable business and only charge chump change for a trade?? I'm thinking about opening an account with e.g. E-trade in order to have access to level II trading info and perhaps learn to take advantage of rather than suffer from MM manipulations of the stocks I own. Is that something you have tried or would otherwise condone?
