    You could supersoes ILND,but then you pay the .002 per share nasdaq fee,as opposed to paying .0019 per share for accessing ISLD.

    Robert,are you guys able to short ANY Nasdaq small cap stock,even ones that are like 50 cents?By the way,Nasdaq small cap stocks are not subject to the short sale rule like the Nasdaq NMS stocks,hence no need for bullets.

    ISLD book

    if you go here...http://www.island.com/bookviewer/javaversion.asp#.....and type in say BRCD...i just saw the ISLD best bid at 20.12 and best offer at 20.15. Where it says price,it shows each ISLD trade price,and i just saw it print at 20.123.So my guess is that 20.123 was a hidden ISLD order.

    ISLD book

    I was referring to the ISLD book,not level 2,that is shown at the ISLD website that only shows ISLD orders.My guess is that these are hidden ISLD orders that are trading in between the best ISLD bid and best ISLD offer.
