Pros & Cons of NYSE Closing Auction D-Quote Orders

[jayr95241]

Hey Guys,

I see an option for Closing D Order Entries that can be placed up until 3:59:50

Can any one please inform me on what the disadvantage of a D Quote order is compared to a MOC order and vice versa.

Other than a Floor broker executing a D Quote order, what is the difference between this and a MOC?

Thanks for any info!

Placement until 3:59:25 only, big difference.

Placement until 3:59:25 only, big difference.

Why wouldn't everyone use this order if it can be modified later?

Is it because of higher fees and not being guaranteed a fill?

No cancel/modify after 3:59:25 and yeah, missing a fill is a big issue for most.

Commissions are pretty high on these too.
