ISE Mini Indexes

Included in the 31* ISE index options are options on four "mini" indexes: the FTSE 250 (FTZ), FTSE 100 (UKX), Nasdaq 100 (MNX), and Russell 2000 (RMN). 
Options on some of the larger-sized indexes -- Russell 1000, Russell 2000 and Nasdaq 100 are also listed on ISE, as well as on other exchanges. The larger-sized FTSE Index option, however, is not listed on ISE. 
Capitalization varies by index. Some are capitalization weighted, and others are modified market capitalization weighted. Each are offered for trading from 9:30 A.M. - 4:15 P.M. Eastern Time (New York time), and each uses European exercise.
 
*The Mini FTSE 250 Index option (JIF) is based on 1/10th of the value of the full-size FTSE 250 Index. (The FTSE 250 Index is a cap-weighted index of the most highly capitalized companies listed on the London Stock Exchange outside the FTSE 100.)
 
*The Mini FTSE 100 Index option (UKX) is based on 1/10th of the value of the full-size FTSE 100 Index. (The FTSE 100 Index is a cap-weighted index representing the most highly capitalized blue-chip companies listed on the London Stock Exchange, representing about 80% of the UK market.)
*The Mini-Nasdaq-100 Index option (MNX) is based on 1/10th the value of the Nasdaq-100 Index (NDX). (The Nasdaq-100 Index is a "modified market capitalization-weighted" index representing 100 of the largest non-financial domestic and international issues listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market. The index was created in 1985 with a base value set to 250. The index level was cut in half in January 1994 after reaching a level of nearly 800 on December 31, 1993.)
*In addition to offering trading in the full-sized Russell 1000 Index and Russell 2000 Index option, ISE lists options on the Mini-Russell 2000 Index option, which is based on 1/10 of the full-sized Russell 2000 Index (RUT). (The cap-weighted Russell 2000 measures performance of the bottom 2,000 companies from a universe of the 3,000 largest stocks in the U.S. traded on major stock exchanges. The Russell 2000 Index is adjusted in June each year to reflect changes in rankings and shares outstanding.)

ISE Oil and Gas Services Index

International Securities Exchange offers options on the cash-settled ISE Oil and Gas Services Index (OOG). This ISE proprietary index includes oil and gas drilling contractors, equipment manufacturers and suppliers, and service providers involved in drilling, evaluation and completion of oil and gas wells.
With 20 component stocks, the Index attempts to capture at least two-thirds of the entire oil and gas services market capitalization. A number of names are highly recognizable, among them: Anadarko Petroleum, Canadian Natural Resources Ltd., Halliburton Co., Norsk Hydro, Schlumberger Ltd., and Valero Energy. 
Due to the non-uniform weight distribution across entire industries, an equal-weighted methodology or a “modified market capitalization-weighted" methodology is used to adjust the weighting of component stocks, and individual component weightings are limited to 25% at semi-annual reviews. Quarterly rebalancing events are used to “re-set” the weighting of each component so each component has an equal influence on the index performance. 
The ISE Oil and Gas Services Index is one of eight ISE industry indexes that also include: ISE U.S. Regional Banks Index; ISE Semiconductor Index; ISE Integrated Oil; ISE Gold; ISE Semiconductors; ISE Biotech & Pharmaceuticals; ISE Homebuilders and ISE SINdex. 
As of Nov. 1, 2007, there are 31 ISE index options listed.

ISE Revere Wal-Mart Supplier Index

The proprietary ISE-REVERE Wal-Mart Supplier Index tracks the performance of companies that derive a substantial portion of their revenue from Wal-Mart Stores. This is a unique situation in which the world’s largest retailer has spawned a sub-industry of dependent companies, including many that are common household names, including. Mattel, Activision, Energizer Holdings, Hanesbrands, Kellogg's, Clorox Co. and Hasbro are a few of the 30 underlying companies in the Index. The goal of the Index is to be the benchmark of that sub-industry.
Dozens of U.S. exchange-traded companies receive 10%, 20%, even 40% or more of their total revenues from Wal-Mart and its subsidiaries in 13 countries with 1.8 million employees. Interestingly, companies trading on a major U.S. exchange are required to disclose customer relationships accounting for 10% or more of total sales, and that's where Revere Data comes into the picture; through the Revere Relationships database, these company-to-company connections are captured. This database, together with the index methodology forms the basis of the ISE-REVERE Wal-Mart Suppliers Index.
The Index uses a "modified market-cap weighted" methodology due to the diversity in market capitalization size among certain component stocks. It sets the weight of each stock to a multiple of the weight of the smallest stock, based on its market capitalization ranking within the portfolio. The resulting linear weight
distribution prevents a few large component stocks from dominating the index while allowing smaller companies to adequately influence index performance. Index components are reviewed semi-annually for eligibility, and the weights are re-set according to that distribution.
As of Nov. 1, 2007, there are 31 ISE index options listed.

ISE Sentiment Index

The ISEE Index is a sentiment index created by the International Securities Exchange that calculates a put/call value that can help investors look at how their investor peers are viewing the bullishness or bearishness of a particular stock (on which ISE has a corresponding option).
== What Is the ISEE Index? ==
How important are investors’ views of the market as an indicator? Crucial, says the International Securities Exchange (ISE), which created and calculates (with proprietary ISE option trade data) the ISE Sentiment Index (ISEE). This is not the typical “tradable” index, but rather a put/call value that helps market participants determine how investors as a whole are expressing their actual market view of a particular stock. In other words, it’s an investment tool for options traders and equity investors looking to supplement and validate their own market views.
Sentiment values are calculated for more than 1700 securities that trade options on ISE (no subscription fees for intra-day or historical ISEE data) and are available going back to April 2002. In short, the higher the reading in the ISEE, the bigger the discrepancy between the optimistic activity (calls) and the pessimistic activity (puts).
== ISEE Select ==
Those interested in a sentiment index on indexes, ETFs, etc. (e.g., QQQQ) have access to another ISE sentiment indicator subscription product, ISEE Select. This Index now is available as an XML feed (for a fee), new in September 2007.
== Calculation Method ==
The Index takes into account only opening long customer transactions to calculate bullish/bearish market direction. Obviously, call buying is seen when traders are optimistic about a stock’s prospects and put buying is a tool for those with a negative outlook. Composite opening long transactions are thought to be the best representation of market sentiment because investors often buy calls and puts to register their market viewpoint. 
Because it takes into account the investor point of view only, the ISEE Index does not factor in market maker and brokerage firm trades; they are not considered representative of true market sentiment due to their highly specialized function. As such, the ISEE calculation method allows for a better measure of true investor sentiment than traditional put/call ratios.
The ISEE value is computed by dividing opening long call options by opening long put options. For example, if 5,000 call options to open traded and 2,000 put options to open traded, the sentiment value would be 250. Higher sentiment values indicate a bullish outlook.
The intra-day values are updated automatically every 20 minutes. The approximate times that the new values can be retrieved: 10 minutes, 30 minutes and 50 minutes after the hour. The 10-, 20-, and 50-day moving averages are updated once a day.
== Exporting Data to Test Your Data ==
With the ISEE, users can export historical data to Excel and manipulate and test the data in any manner desired, from plotting it against the base security to designing trading systems around it.

ISE Stock Exchange

The ISE Stock Exchange, formed in September 2006, is the equities exchange affiliated with the International Securities Exchange (ISE). It is regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Andrew Brenner is president of the exchange.
On December 23, 2008, the ISE Stock Exchange became a wholly owned subsidiary of Direct Edge Holdings, the parent company of Direct Edge ECN. Upon completion of the transaction, ISE also gained a significant equity stake in Direct Edge.
 
The exchange lists approximately 6,000 securities, including the most common stocks and ETFs listed on the NYSE, NYSE Arca, NASDAQ and Amex from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. (EST). Trading extends to 4:15 p.m. for ETFs that trade for the extended 15-minute time period. The ISE Stock Exchange reports quotes and trades directly to the tape, with the letter "i" used to denote ISE-disseminated quotes and trades for all equity securities. 
The exchange has a dual-structure platform that integrates a dark pool, its MidPoint Match(SM), with a fully displayed stock market. The benefit to traders, according to the exchange, is the ability to have complete order protection and continuous price improvement on one singular platform. 
Orders sent to the ISE Stock Exchange's Displayed Market have exposure to three liquidity pools: 
*First, they receive exposure to the non-displayed MidPoint Match (MPM) order book and may be automatically executed with price improvement. 
*If no match is found, orders are exposed in the Displayed Market. 
*If necessary, orders are then routed out to achieve the best price.
== News ==
*On December 21, 2007, ISE announced that pricing changes for the ISE Stock Exchange would result in $0.0032/$0.0030 maker/taker pricing per share for orders executed on the ISE Stock Exchange's displayed market. The pricing changes were effective on January 2, 2008.
*On September 7, 2007, just one year after it was formed, the ISE Stock Exchange traded a record 100 million shares in a single day (daily volume/most traded: ). This was on the heels of a 50-million-share volume record set just less than one month prior. Volume continued to mount with new daily records throughout the month. On September 19, 2007, the ISE Stock Exchange set a new daily trading volume record of 115.7 million, surpassing the previous record of 109 million shares set on September 18, 2007.
