Online, what you see is what you get...at least if your data feed is up to 
snuff.  When daytrading a stock index, do you want the current price, or do 
you want whatever it might happen to be 30 or 60 seconds from now?  Granted, 
sometimes the price is better later, but I'd rather get what I see on my 
screen.
