I know this debate is going on now because the markets are moving fast. All
through this I have not had one order come back not held or not filled in
the s&p's . The reality is that if market conditions dictate -floor brokers
are not held, and I do get some bad fills but I always get filled. the dow
is a different story, again my limits get filled but not always at the
price.
