Gene, Is there any possible defense for a market maker NOT representing & filling a $1 17/32 limit order that has been in since yesterday ? This is the kind of thing the gripes me really bad. My order (actually my brother in laws) order was sitting there waiting to be filled at $1.53, and it trades TWICE below his limit without his limit ever being represented. Do you find this to be within the spirit of the rule ? How NITE can sit there and claim best executions is beyond me when they wont even passively represent limit orders at the open.
