Well actually, I think it is a good sign that the regular Direct+ will change soon on all other stocks other than ETF's.

i don't see how this well help anyone much since the most popular ETFs are traded on AMEX. Agree ECNs are the way to go for QQQ.

Even though the primary exchange may be AMEX, the NYSE is still posting markets. I guess the only people this will be really helpful to are the prop traders who`s firms don`t allow them to execute anywhere besides the big board. Thats a whole other can of worms though....biggest joke around if you ask me.
