Bitsas~~~fwiw:
One of the problems for private investors these days has been the proliferation of electronic trading .
Buying , or selling , on the press of a button may not always be in the investors best interests or enable the best deal . If (after research) a decision is reached to buy or sell (and assuming the order is of some meaningful quantity) a Broker will often be able to approach their chosen MM`s and request the order be filled at a price not available on the open market .( Just one of the reasons why the reported buys / sells / level 2/ coloured trades and short term graphs can be very misleading .) Also , MM can delay the reporting of a trade for probably up to one week ! In the main though delayed reporting usually occurs within a couple of days ,
Of course there will be an additional charge , which should be ameliorated if you`ve done your research .
Another alternative for the PI is to trade through DMA , but difficult for most investors .
It`s not surprising that the real beneficiaries of electronic trading have been the financial houses their proliferation of easy access to online trading accounts . Churning the market produces huge profits at little risk , especially when these people (often acting in concert) know exactly what is going on behind the scenes of individual Companies .
Certainly some justification for the often cries from private investors ~ " This crooked Market "
GL with BLOE !
(A great prospect - imo .)
