Notice of Filing and Immediate 

Effectiveness of a Proposed Rule 

Change Relating to the Complex Order 

Book 

October 27, 2014. 

Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the 

Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the 

‘‘Act’’),1 and Rule 19b–4 thereunder,2

notice is hereby given that on October 

15, 2014, C2 Options Exchange, 

Incorporated (the ‘‘Exchange’’ or ‘‘C2’’) 

filed with the Securities and Exchange 

Commission (the ‘‘Commission’’) the 

proposed rule change as described in 

Items I, II, and III below, which Items 

have been prepared by the Exchange. 

The Commission is publishing this 

notice to solicit comments on the 

proposed rule change from interested 

persons. 

I. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement of the Terms of Substance of 

the Proposed Rule Change 

The Exchange proposes to amend its 

rules related to the complex order book 

(‘‘COB’’). The text of the proposed rule 

change is provided below. 

(additions are italicized; deletions are 

[bracketed])

C2 Options Exchange, Incorporated 

Rules 

* * * * * 

Rule 6.13. Complex Order Execution 

(a)–(c) No change. 

. . . Interpretations and Policies: 

.01–.06 No change. 

.07 Execution of Complex Orders on 

the COB Open: 

(a) Complex orders, including stockoption orders, do not participate in 

opening rotations for individual 

component option series legs conducted 

pursuant to Rule 6.11. When the last of 

the individual component option series 

legs that make up a complex order 

strategy has opened (and, in the case of 

a stock-option order, the underlying 

stock has opened), the COB for that 

strategy will open. The COB will open 

with no trade, except as follows: 

([a]i) The COB will open with a trade 

against the individual component 

option series legs if there are complex 

orders on only one side of the COB that 

are marketable against the opposite side 

of the derived net market. The resulting 

execution will occur at the derived net 

market price to the extent marketable 

pursuant to the rules of trading priority 

otherwise applicable to incoming 

electronic orders in the individual 

component legs. To the extent there is 

any remaining balance, the complex 

orders will trade pursuant to 

subparagraph (ii) below or, if unable to 

trade, be processed as they would on an 

intra-day basis under Rule 6.13. [(]This 

subparagraph ([a]i) is not applicable to 

stock-option orders because stockoption orders do not trade against the 

individual component option series legs 

when the COB opens.[)] 

([b]ii) The COB will open (or continue 

to open with another trade if a trade 

occurred pursuant to subparagraph (i)

3The ‘‘derived net market’’ is calculated based on 

the Exchange’s best bid or offer (‘‘BBO’’) in the 

individual series legs. For stock-option orders, the 

derived net market is calculated based on the BBO 

in the individual option series leg(s) and the 

national best bid or offer (‘‘NBBO’’) in the stock leg. 

See Rule 6.13, Interpretation and Policy .07(c) 

(which this rule filing proposes to change to 

paragraph (b)). 

4Pursuant to Rule 13, complex orders may either 

enter the COB or process through a complex order 

auction (COA). 

5 Id. 

6The proposed rule change reorganizes 

Interpretation and Policy .07. This proposed 

language appears in proposed paragraph (a)(ii) 

(current paragraph (b)), which is the paragraph 

related to trades of complex orders on the COB at 

the open. 

7The allocation algorithms include price-time, 

pro-rata, and price-time with primary public 

customer priority and secondary trade participation 

right priority base priorities and a combination of 

various optional priority overlays pertaining to 

public customer priority, Market-Maker 

participation entitlements, small order preference 

and market turner. See Rule 6.12. 

8The proposed rule change also adds to current 

paragraph (a) (proposed paragraph (a)(i)) that 

executions of complex orders against the individual 

legs will be pursuant to the rules of trading priority 

otherwise applicable to incoming electronic orders 

in the individual component legs. The current rule 

is silent on what allocation algorithm applies to 

executions of complex orders on the COB against 

the individual legs. The Exchange believes the 

proposed rule text merely eliminates any potential 

confusion regarding how complex orders will be 

allocated in accordance with proposed paragraph 

(a)(i). 

9See Rule 6.11, Interpretation and Policy .01. 

10Rule 6.13(b)(1) states that complex orders 

submitted to the COB may trade as follows: (a) A 

complex order in the COB will automatically 

execute against individual quotes and orders on the 

book provided the complex order can be executed 

in full or in a permissible ratio by the orders and 

quotes in the book; or (b) complex orders in the 

COB that are marketable against each other will 

automatically execute, and the allocation of 

complex orders within the COB will be pursuant to 

the rules of trading priority otherwise applicable to 

incoming orders in the individual component legs. 

above) with a trade against complex 

orders if there are complex orders in the 

COB (including any remaining balance 

of an order that enters the COB after a 

partial trade with the legs pursuant to 

subparagraph (i)) that are marketable 

against each other and priced within the 

derived net market. The resulting 

execution will occur at a market 

clearing price that is inside the derived 

net market and that matches complex 

orders to the extent marketable pursuant 

to the allocation algorithm from Rule 

6.12, as determined by the Exchange on 

a class-by-class basis[. In determining 

the priority,] with the addition that the 

COB gives priority to complex orders 

whose net price is better than the 

market clearing price first, and then to 

complex orders at the market clearing 

price. To the extent there is any 

remaining balance, the complex orders 

will be processed as they would on an 

intra-day basis under Rule 6.13. [(]This 

subparagraph ([b]ii) is applicable to 

stock-option orders.[)] 

([c]b) The ‘‘derived net market’’ for a 

stock-option order strategy will be 

calculated using the Exchange’s best bid 

or offer in the individual option series 

leg(s) and the NBBO in the stock leg. 

The ‘‘derived net market’’ for any other 

complex order strategy will be 

calculated using the Exchange’s best bid 

or offer in the individual option series 

legs. 

(c) The Exchange may also use the 

process described in paragraph (a) of 

this Interpretation and Policy .07 when 

the COB reopens a strategy after a time 

period during which trading of that 

strategy was unavailable.

is also available on the Exchange’s Web 

site (http://www.cboe.com/AboutCBOE/

II. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement of the Purpose of, and 

Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule 

Change 

In its filing with the Commission, the 

Exchange included statements 

concerning the purpose of and basis for 

the proposed rule change and discussed 

any comments it received on the 

proposed rule change. The text of these 

statements may be examined at the 

places specified in Item IV below. The 

Exchange has prepared summaries, set 

forth in sections A, B, and C below, of 

the most significant aspects of such 

statements. 

A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement of the Purpose of, and 

Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule 

Change 

1. Purpose 

The Exchange proposes to amend its 

rules related its COB. Rule 6.13, 

Interpretation and Policy .07 describes 

how complex orders execute when the 

COB opens. Complex orders do not 

participate in the opening rotation for 

the individual leg series (which occurs 

pursuant to Rule 6.11). Rather, the COB 

for a complex order strategy will open 

when the last of the individual legs 

series that make up the strategy has 

opened (and, in the case of a stockoption order, when the underlying stock 

has opened). Under the current rules, 

the COB will open with no trade, except 

as follows: 

• The COB will open with a trade 

against the individual component 

option series legs if there are complex 

orders on only one side of the COB that 

are marketable against the opposite side 

of the derived net market.3 The resulting 

execution will occur at the derived net 

market price to the extent marketable. 

To the extent there is any remaining 

balance, the complex orders will be 

processed as they would on an intra-day 

basis under Rule 6.13.4 This does not 

apply to stock-option orders, which 

cannot trade against the individual leg 

series when the COB opens. 

• The COB will open with a trade 

against complex orders if there are 

complex orders in the COB that are 

marketable against each other and 

priced within the derived net market. 

The resulting execution will occur at a 

market clearing price that is inside the 

derived net market and that matches 

complex orders to the extent 

marketable. In determining the priority, 

the COB gives priority to complex 

orders whose net price is better than the 

market clearing price first, and then to 

complex orders at the market clearing 

price. To the extent there is any 

remaining balance, the complex orders 

will be processed as they would on an 

intra-day basis under Rule 6.13.5 This 

applies to stock-option orders. 

The proposed rule change adds to 

current paragraph (b) of Interpretation 

and Policy .07 6 that the Exchange may 

determine, on a class-by-class basis, 

which allocation algorithm from Rule 

6.12 7 will apply to complex order 

trades on the COB open pursuant to 

current paragraph (b) (proposed 

paragraph (a)(ii)).8 The Exchange may 

determine on a class-by-class basis 

which allocation algorithm from Rule 

6.12 will apply to executions to opening 

rotations.9 This opening allocation 

algorithm may be different than the 

intraday allocation algorithm. The 

proposed rule change provides the 

Exchange with the same flexibility with 

respect to executions of complex orders 

on the COB open. While Rule 6.13, 

Interpretation and Policy .05 provides 

the Exchange with the flexibility to 

determine on a class-by-class basis 

which allocation algorithm from Rule 

6.12 will apply to COB executions (in 

lieu of the algorithm specified in Rule 

6.12(b)(1)(B)),10 Interpretation and 

Policy .07 does not state that the 

applicable allocation algorithm for 

complex order executions on the COB 

open may be different than the intraday 

allocation algorithm for the COB. The 

proposed rule change adds this detail to 

the rules and allows the Exchange to 

determine on a class-by-class basis 

which allocation algorithm will apply to 


asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 211 / Friday, October 31, 2014 / Notices 64855 

11Currently, complex orders that execute against 

the COB (proposed subparagraph (a)(ii)) allocate 

pursuant to price-time. 

12See Rule 6.13, Interpretation and Policy .01 

(which states that the Exchange will announce to 

Trading Permit Holders via Regulatory Circular all 

pronouncements regarding determinations by the 

Exchange pursuant to Rule 6.13). 

13The Exchange represents that complex orders 

continue to have opportunities to trade against the 

leg markets, both at the open pursuant to proposed 

paragraph (a)(i) and intraday pursuant to Rule 

6.13(b) (execution of orders in the COB) and (c) 

(execution of orders through COA). Additionally, 

this filing does not change the complex order 

priority principles (including public customer 

priority) set forth in Rules 6.12 and 6.13. 

14Additionally, because Rules 6.11, 

Interpretation and Policy .01, 6.12 and 6.13, 

Interpretation and Policy .05 provide the Exchange 

with flexibility to determine allocation algorithms 

on a class-by-class basis, the Exchange believes it 

is appropriate to provide the same class-by-class 

flexibility to trading at the COB open. 

15See Rule 6.11 regarding the opening of series 

at a market-clearing price and Rule 6.13, 

Interpretation and Policy .07(b) regarding the 

opening of the COB at a market-clearing price. 

16See Rule 6.11(i). 

17See Rule 6.13, Interpretation and Policy .04. 

For example, pursuant to paragraph (a)(3), if the 

BBO or derived net market is not within an 

acceptable price range, the System holds marketable 

limit orders and does not allow trading of complex 

orders for that strategy until the market is no longer 

outside the applicable price range.

20 Id. 

complex order trades on the COB open, 

which may be different than the 

allocation algorithm applicable to 

intraday complex order trades on the 

COB.11 The Exchange will announce 

any allocation algorithm determinations 

via Regulatory Circular.12

The Exchange is not proposing to 

adopt any new allocation algorithms or 

priority rules nor is it proposing to 

modify the COB opening process.13

Rather, it is adding detail to the 

Exchange rule regarding the COB 

opening process and providing the 

Exchange with flexibility to choose an 

algorithm from among the existing 

algorithms that will apply to complex 

order trades on the COB open, rather 

than simply defaulting to the algorithm 

in effect for intraday trading on the COB 

in that class. The Exchange believes this 

flexibility is consistent with its other 

rules regarding the determination of 

allocation algorithms and will further 

promote fair and orderly openings of 

strategies on the COB.14

The proposed rule change also adds 

detail to proposed paragraph (a)(ii) 

regarding which trades on the COB are 

deemed to be part of the opening of the 

COB (and thus subject to the allocation 

algorithm in place for the COB open). 

To the extent a complex order partially 

trades with the leg series on the COB 

open, and the remaining balance enters 

the COB (pursuant to Rule 6.13) as set 

forth in proposed subparagraph (a)(i), if 

that remaining balance is marketable 

against another complex order on the 

COB at the open, those orders will 

execute as set forth in proposed 

subparagraph (a)(ii). Thus, any 

execution of that remaining balance on 

the COB is considered an execution at 

the COB open, as the open is intended 

to cause any marketable complex orders 

to trade, and thus subject to proposed 

subparagraph (a)(ii) (current paragraph 

(b)). The proposed rule change makes a 

corresponding change to proposed 

paragraph (a)(i) to provide that any 

remaining balance may trade pursuant 

to proposed paragraph (a)(ii) (if unable 

to trade, it will be processed as it would 

on an intra-day basis). The proposed 

rule change also makes a corresponding 

change to proposed paragraph (a)(ii) to 

provide that the COB will open, or 

continue to open, with a trade of 

complex orders on the COB, as the COB 

opening may already have been initiated 

by a trade pursuant to paragraph (a)(i). 

For example, suppose Complex Order 

X is an order to buy 20 Series A and 20 

Series B for a net price of $2.40 and on 

the COB at the open. If the market for 

Series A is $1.00—$1.20 and the market 

for Series B is $1.00—$1.20 (for a net 

price of $2.00—$2.40), with the offer to 

sell at $2.40 for 10 contracts, then when 

the COB opens, 10 contracts of Complex 

Order X will trade against the 10 

contracts in the leg markets. The 

remaining balance of 10 of Complex 

Order X then enters the COB pursuant 

to Rule 6.13(b). If Complex Order Y to 

sell 10 Series A and 10 Series B at $2.40 

is on the COB at the open, then the 

remaining balance of Complex Order X 

will trade against Complex Order Y. 

This trade of Complex Order X against 

Complex Order Y is part of the COB 

open. If there were multiple complex 

orders at the same price, they would 

allocate in accordance with the 

algorithm in place for the COB open. 

The Exchange believes that the rule 

text is currently unclear as to whether 

any remaining balance from proposed 

subparagraph (a)(i) enters the COB and 

is marketable against the COB would 

trade in accordance with COB open or 

COB intraday rules. Currently, if the 

remaining balance is marketable against 

other complex orders in the COB, the 

System will execute the remaining 

balance against orders in the COB as 

part of the COB open (and thus in 

accordance with the opening matching 

algorithm). Generally, the ‘‘opening’’ 

includes all trades that would ‘‘clear’’ 

the market.15 The proposed rule change 

is consistent with this idea and adds 

this detail to proposed subparagraph 

(a)(ii) to codify the intent of the current 

rule. 

In addition, the proposed rule change 

adds paragraph (c) to Interpretation and 

Policy .07, which states that the 

Exchange may use the process described 

in paragraph (a) when the COB reopens 

a strategy after a time period during 

which trading of that strategy was 

unavailable pursuant to the rules. The 

Exchange may use the opening rotation 

process to reopen a class after a trading 

halt.16 The proposed rule change 

provides the Exchange with the same 

flexibility with respect to reopening the 

COB. Trading of strategies may be 

unavailable on the COB, for example, if 

there is a trading halt in the underlying 

security or if trading on the COB is ‘‘on 

hold’’ because the derived net market is 

outside of price check parameters set by 

the Exchange to prevent extreme 

executions.17 The Exchange uses the 

opening rotation process to reopen after 

a trading halt to provide for an orderly 

reopening, and the Exchange would 

similarly like to provide for a fair and 

orderly reopening of the COB after any 

period during which COB trading was 

unavailable. 

The proposed rule change also makes 

nonsubstantive, technical changes to 

Interpretation and Policy .07, including 

adding and modifying subparagraph 

lettering and numbering, indenting 

subparagraphs, and deleting 

unnecessary parentheticals. 

2. Statutory Basis 

The Exchange believes the proposed 

rule change is consistent with the Act 

and the rules and regulations 

thereunder applicable to the Exchange 

and, in particular, the requirements of 

Section 6(b) of the Act.18 Specifically, 

the Exchange believes the proposed rule 

change is consistent with the Section 

6(b)(5) 19 requirements that the rules of 

an exchange be designed to prevent 

fraudulent and manipulative acts and 

practices, to promote just and equitable 

principles of trade, to foster cooperation 

and coordination with persons engaged 

in regulating, clearing, settling, 

processing information with respect to, 

and facilitating transactions in 

securities, to remove impediments to 

and perfect the mechanism of a free and 

open market and a national market 

system, and, in general, to protect 

investors and the public interest. 

Additionally, the Exchange believes the 

proposed rule change is consistent with 

the Section 6(b)(5) 20 requirement that 

the rules of an exchange not be designed

21See Rule 6.11(i) (use of opening procedures 

after a trading halt) and Interpretation and Policy 

.01 (determination of allocation algorithm on a 

class-by-class basis during opening rotations, which 

may be different than allocation algorithm for 

intraday trading). 

22See Rule 6.13, Interpretation and Policy .05.

to permit unfair discrimination between 

customers, issuers, brokers, or dealers. 

In particular, the proposed rule 

change adds detail to its rules regarding 

the opening of trading on its COB, 

which benefits investors. The Exchange 

believes the flexibility provided by the 

proposed rule change is consistent with 

its other rules. The Exchange already 

has flexibility to apply a different 

allocation algorithm at the open of 

trading of simple orders and to use its 

opening procedure after a trading halt 

for simple orders.21 It also already has 

the flexibility to apply a different 

allocation algorithm to complex order 

executions on the COB.22 The Exchange 

is merely extending this flexibility to 

the opening and reopening of trading of 

complex orders on the COB. The 

Exchange notes that the level of trading 

activity is often different at the open 

than during the trading day. To ensure 

a fair and orderly opening in light of 

this trading activity, rules often allow 

the Exchange to apply them in a 

different manner to the opening of 

trading (such as different bid-ask 

differential requirements, different price 

reasonability checks and different 

allocation algorithms). The Exchange 

believes extending similar flexibility to 

the opening of complex order trading on 

the Exchange will allow it to similarly 

ensure a fair and orderly COB open, 

which protects investors and promotes 

just and equitable principles of trade. 

The proposed rule change that 

specifies that the remaining balance of 

a complex order that partially trades 

with the individual leg series may be 

executed as part of the COB open 

provision, and that the COB open may 

include both trades of complex orders 

with the legs and with other complex 

orders, further benefits investors and 

promotes an open market by adding 

detail to the rules regarding how the 

System treats this remaining balance. 

Openings generally include a series of 

trades in order to execute all orders that 

are marketable upon the open, and the 

Exchange believes the proposed rule 

change is consistent with that idea. 

B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Burden on Competition 

C2 does not believe that the proposed 

rule change will impose any burden on 

competition that is not necessary or 

appropriate in furtherance of the 

purposes of the Act. The proposed rule 

change applies to all complex order 

trading on the COB when it opens or 

reopens. In addition, the proposed rule 

change applies only to the COB opening 

process on the Exchange. Its purpose is 

to include the COB opening procedure 

that is currently in place on the 

Exchange, which procedure is designed 

to open complex order strategies on the 

Exchange in a fair and orderly manner. 

The proposed rule change does not help 

C2 market participants to the detriment 

of market participants on other 

exchanges. 

C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Comments on the 

Proposed Rule Change Received From 

Members, Participants, or Others 

The Exchange neither solicited nor 

received comments on the proposed 

rule change. 

III. Date of Effectiveness of the 

Proposed Rule Change and Timing for 

Commission Action 

Because the foregoing proposed rule 

change does not: 

A. Significantly affect the protection 

of investors or the public interest; 

B. impose any significant burden on 

competition; and 

C. become operative for 30 days from 

the date on which it was filed, or such 

shorter time as the Commission may 

designate, it has become effective 

pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the 

Act 23 and Rule 19b–4(f)(6) 24

thereunder. At any time within 60 days 

of the filing of the proposed rule change, 

the Commission summarily may 

temporarily suspend such rule change if 

it appears to the Commission that such 

action is necessary or appropriate in the 

public interest, for the protection of 

investors, or otherwise in furtherance of
