Displayed orders. An order that is sitting on the NASDAQ order book and visible to anyone who subscribes to the NASDAQ order book.
To clarify: The 1 penny division is for Displayed Orders. It does not apply to none displayed orders such as a NASDAQ PEGMID.

Displayed order. It's on the order book and available to anyone who subscribes to that order book. But as a retail trader you would only see it if it happens to be top of the order book. Then it'll be on your Level 2 display.

I think you should try TradeZero. It will be great match.
