NYSE Liffe U.S. Anticipates Smooth Migration Of Futures On MSCI Emerging Markets And MSCI EAFE Indices From CME On June 17

NYSE Liffe U.S. Anticipates Smooth Migration Of Futures On MSCI Emerging Markets And MSCI EAFE Indices From CME On June 17
This month, NYSE Liffe U.S. will become the sole U.S. marketplace for futures on MSCI Indices. On July 12, 2010, MSCI announced that it did not renew its licensing agreement with the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) for futures contracts based on the MSCI EAFE and MSCI Emerging Markets indices. The last contracts available for trading on the CME will expire June 17, 2011. According to Vice President of Equity Derivatives at NYSE Euronext, John McGonegal, this should appear to be a smooth transition to users of the markets, and what it means is that another step has been taken in building out a "world-class" MSCI-based futures complex at NYSE Liffe U.S.
“I have been very impressed and encouraged by the response we have gotten over the last several months," says McGonegal. "Our global customers, liquidity providers and market participants have been very focused and engaged on this migration, and the progress has been excellent so far.”
The contract specifications for these products are identical to the specifications of the CME contracts. The main differences will center around details relating to the trading platform, and a change in clearinghouse. 
Minor changes that will impact market users include that the NYSE Liffe U.S. roll quoting convention differs from the CME convention. Using the NYSE Liffe U.S. convention, the bid price is equal to the NEGATIVE of the ASK price using the CME convention. Similarly the ask price using the NYSE Liffe U.S. convention is equal to the NEGATIVE of the BID price using the CME convention. Keeping this relationship in mind, it is easy to convert between the two conventions. 
Exchange officials say that anyone who currently holds open interest in the CME contract should contact the exchange in advance of June 17. A readiness test was held in May. The exchange suggests that to be ready for the move, firms and FCMs take steps including making sure that all relevant desks can access market data, that traders have assigned IDs from NYSE Liffe U.S. and that regulatory and compliance considerations are discussed with the appropriate staff. Other suggested changes can be found here
"All of the feedback we have gotten so far has been very positive," says McGonegal. "Our liquidity providers are quoting deep and liquid markets and our wholesale trading desks have provided significant liquidity.” 
As of June of 2011, NYSE Liffe U.S. offers trading in precious metals futures and options, MSCI index-based equity futures and U.S. interest rate futures, including Eurodollar and U.S. Treasury futures.

NYSE Liffe US Mini-sized Gold

NYSE Liffe US , NYSE Euronext’s U.S. futures exchange launched trading on metals futures on September 8, 2008. Trading is fully electronic and the contracts are physically delivered. NYSE Liffe US Mini Gold futures are 33.2 ounces per contract, one-third the size of the full sized 100 ounce contract that is also traded on the exchange.
NYSE Liffe U.S. futures contracts trade on the LIFFE CONNECT electronic trading platform.
The NYSE Liffe US metals complex was purchased from the CME Group in March of 2008. The contracts were formerly the metals complex of the Chicago Board of Trade. The CME Group disposed of the complex ahead of its purchase of the New York Mercantile Exchange to avoid any anti-trust problems with the transaction related to its dominant position in metals. 
Originally as part of the purchase deal with the CME Group, the contracts continued to clear at the CME's clearing house, but on March 30, 2009 clearing for NYSE Liffe US metals were transferred to The Options Clearing Corporation.

NYSE Pillar

Pillar is the trading platform NYSE Group began to launch on February 22, 2016. The launch was originally set for the third quarter of 2015 but was delayed. The exchange began the migration with NYSE Arca; the other markets owned by NYSE Group Inc., including the New York Stock Exchange, followed later, with the final market adoption of Pillar in 2017.
Three symbols began trading on NYSE Arca Equities at 7 a.m. February 22, after tests the previous Saturday. The exchange's migration schedule says that 183 symbols will trade on the new technology by February 25. By March 16 the matching engine is expected to have migrated 8,066 symbols.
In a press release announcing the launch, NYSE said Pillar would be "an integrated trading technology platform that will enable you to connect to all of our equities and options markets using a single specification." It promises more efficient processing; a shorter time to market for ongoing enhancements; and simplified, harmonized order types, terminology and messaging across all of NYSE's markets.
Pillar allows users to connect to each of the NYSE Group's markets: The New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), NYSE MKT, NYSE Arca, NYSE Arca Options, NYSE Amex Options, Global OTC and NYSE Bonds. NYSE Arca Equities were the first market to migrate to Pillar during the third quarter of 2015.
NYSE started introducing its current system, called the Universal Trading Platform, more than five years earlier.

NYSE Regulation, Inc.

NYSE Regulation, Inc. is an independent not-for-profit corporation dedicated to strengthening market integrity and investor protection. A subsidiary of NYSE, the organization consists of three divisions: market surveillance, enforcement and risk, and listed company compliance.
NYSE Regulation's board of directors is composed of a majority of directors unaffiliated with any other NYSE board. As a result, NYSE Regulation is independent in its decision-making. 
== History ==
On July 30, 2007, NYSE Regulation’s member regulation oversight functions were consolidated with NASD to form the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). 
NYSE Regulation outsourced its market surveillance and enforcement functions to FINRA in 2010, while retaining an oversight role and continuing to ensure that NYSE-listed companies comply with listing standards.
On October 6, 2014, NYSE Group said it would take back the majority of the policing duties for its two U.S. options exchanges and three stock markets from FINRA at the end of 2015. FINRA will continue to conduct cross-market surveillance for NYSE, which incorporates data from other exchanges to spot abusive trading patterns. It will also continue to conduct the registration, testing, and examinations of broker-dealer members of NYSE's exchanges, but it will hand over the other oversight services to NYSE Regulation.
NYSE Regulation will use Cinnober's technology platform and surveillance tools. The platform uses real-time data and provides the ability to play back trading events and to explore cross-market activity.
Trading violations that occur on or through the systems and facilities of the NYSE Group continue to be investigated and prosecuted by NYSE Regulation’s Enforcement division. 
The NYSE Regulation board of directors is composed of three NYSE Euronext directors, six otherwise unaffiliated with NYSE Euronext, and the NYSE Regulation CEO. The CEO of NYSE Regulation has primary responsibility for the regulatory oversight of the U.S. market subsidiaries within NYSE Euronext and reports solely to the NYSE Regulation board of directors. 
The regulation board oversees all compensation decisions for Regulation employees and the nomination of directors to the Board of Regulation. When it comes to disciplinary actions, the decisions of NYSE Regulation and its board of directors are final, although subject to appeal to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
== Technology ==
In October 2014 NYSE Regulation said it had chosen to implement market surveillance technology developed and powered by Scila in Stockholm for NYSE Group’s equities and options exchanges, including the New York Stock Exchange.

NYSE Retail Liquidity Program

On July 3, 2012, NYSE Euronext received approval form the SEC to establish a retail liquidity program, a market solution for improving retail equities trading order flow by increasing cost savings and improving prices for individual investors. The execution alternative differentiates itself from other platforms by publicly indicating when price improving liquidity is available in the markets. The program, which began in August 2012, directs trades from retail investors onto a special platform where trading firms can bid to offer them the best price. The result will create two new classes of market participants: 
*Retail Liquidity Providers (RLPs), services that would be required to price improvements for certain retail orderflow in a form of interest that is better than the best protected bid/offer. RLPs would receive certain economic benefits in exchange for meeting obligations.
*Retail Member Organizations (RMOs), organizations that would be eligible to submit retail orders to the Exchange.
NYSE will disseminate an indication whenever there is liquidity available at a price better that the PBBO to the Consolidated Quote System and its proprietary feeds. The exchange plans to send out semi-blind messages called “retail liquidity identifiers,” or liquidity flags, to participants. The messages divulge symbol and side, but not size or price. Market Makers will be allowed to post hidden quotes in sub-penny increments that may only be traded against by qualified retail brokers.
The program, criticized by many as a dark pool, is claimed to differ from the venue type because wholesalers must provide prices that match or improve upon levels in the public markets, whereas dark pool operators can keep that information confidential.

NYSE Texas

NYSE Texas is a planned fully electronic equities exchange announced by the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) on February 12, 2025. The new exchange will be headquartered in Dallas, Texas, and is set to be created by reincorporating NYSE Chicago in Texas, pending regulatory approvals.
== History ==
The announcement of NYSE Texas comes as part of a strategic move by the NYSE to expand its presence in the Southwestern United States.

This move aligns with a broader trend of businesses relocating to Texas, attracted by the state's growing population, strong economy, and business-friendly regulatory environment.
It also comes at a time when efforts are being made to establish a separate Texas Stock Exchange (TXSE), highlighting the growing interest in developing Texas as a major financial hub.
== Products and Services ==
NYSE Texas will offer:
* A fully electronic equities exchange platform
* Listing opportunities for companies incorporated in Texas and globally
* Trading services leveraging NYSE's 230 years of experience as a leading exchange operator

Naked access

Also see: Sponsored Access
Naked access involves the practice of brokers giving high-frequency traders unfettered access to public markets. Some also refer to this practice as "unfiltered access." 
Some industry sources feared, however, that with high-frequency trading platforms firing off hundreds -- if not thousands -- of orders per second, a buy-side firm that has a sponsored-access arrangement with a broker could make a huge mistake.
In October 2009, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) said it was looking for ways to crack down on sponsored naked access, where brokerages that were approved to trade on an exchange rent their access to clients who are able to shave milliseconds from the time it takes to access the markets. At the time, lawmakers were becoming increasingly concerned that market developments were creating an uneven playing field that favored sophisticated traders and investors.

Naked option

A naked option strategy is an unhedged strategy making exclusive use of either a short call strategy (selling or writing call options), or a short put strategy (selling or writing put options). These positions are called naked strategies because they do not involve an offsetting or risk-reducing position in another option or in the underlying security. 
A short call position is uncovered if the writer does not have a long stock or long call position. A short put position is uncovered if the writer is not short stock or long another put. 
It is the antithesis of a covered option.
