No, you don’t understand how that works. Citadel wants the retail order flow because it’s a huge pool filled with uninformed investors. They can actually offer you better spreads because on average you have no edge.

It’s similar to a casino offering free hotel rooms to people who play blackjack but who do not know how to card count. They even offer 3/2 on blackjack instead of 6/5.
