I could post the direct link to the video but I suppose that would be unfair. It's free....and I have no idea how credible it is.

The R2K/RUT/IWM options I trade already move and are quoted in one penny increments, though most options I've looked at don't usually. Although I frequently see trades off the nickel increments even when B/A are on those increments. So any push in the direction of narrower spreads would be welcomed, and more interest might also add needed liquidity to these trades.

What if anything is the value of the NAZ 'listing' of options? No need for regular brokerage accts to be pre-cleared for options trading? Lead more sheep to be shorn? Stock data services would now carry? (I now have to pay extra for options and futures).

Curious on what this could mean. Absent real info, speculation welcomed.
