Third Market Maker
What does it mean?
A third-party firm willing to buy or sell stocks listed on exchanges at publicly quoted prices.
In Other Words...
A broker is likely to direct an order to a third market maker for one of two reasons:
A) the broker is not a member of the exchange on which the stock is traded. B) the third market maker entices the brokerage by paying (maybe a cent or two) per share for the trade.
