I am an Assent trader who felt J.W. Kirkland's original post served to clarify some important issues. That being said, in the
original version there was a volume comparison. My question is is that an apples to apples comparison or an apples to oranges
comparison. Assent's monthly volume may be 2 billion shares
but how much of that is done with prop. traders as oppossed
to hedge funds, retirement plans, other prop. firms etc? To
the best of my knowledge the other prop. firm deals only with
proprietary and retail traders.
