That's weird indeed. Here in Belgium, and the most part of Europe I think, online banks/brokers are getting more and more popular and trying to steal clients from more classic banks, where you sometimes had to wait several days before you saw the stock you purchased actually appear in your portfolio. Don't you have something similar there. For example Binck Bank is making huge publicity that they will even pay you back the transfercosts if you transfer your portfolio to them. Other publicity is that you get a 1000 euros of free transactions for becoming or recommending a client...

But we don't know market makers like you do in the States.
