doug,
you are correct in all , the three minute rule is another traditional answer
from the floor to keep people from complaining about the way the paper is
treated. If you decide to take a floor broker to arbitration the arb
committee will look at market conditions and the length of time it took to
get you paper filled.
the number one reason I like to trade on PMBe is I dont have to talk to the
floor clerks anymore then I have to.
