Javelin,


If you work on a high-visibility or friction desk - meaning one where you talk to customers or handle their orders all day - in fixed income or whatever, some of us (me would be really curious to know what it's like - what kind of trades you do, whom they come from, etc.


More specifically, if you are a sales-trader, I would be curious to know what the trend in revenues per station has been like in your product, and how it has been affected by new technologies and shopping/matching facilities!


Have the flows become less visible?


Do customers shop you and then match elsewhere?


Do you steer your own smaller clients into in-house electronic routing alternatives?


Do you make your book available electronically to anyone, or advertise your spread actively?


Thanks either way,
