*dark pool* trading >> accounts for 658,102 out of 1,408,645 = 46.71%



FALSE, OTC Link is not a Dark Pool by SEC definition, as it publicly displays bids and offers. Also the ECN known as ARCA is not a Dark Pool by SEC definition:

The term “dark pools” refers to non-exchange alternative trading systems (“ATSs”) that do not display bids or offers in the public quote stream.



ECNs publicly display their top-of-book price and depth information and are therefore not considered to be dark pools.



Simply put it is nothing more than ATS data, the orders completed via the centralized marketplace known as the OTC Markets. Orders in internalized at their respective broker are not included in such data.
