Download as PDF 58462 Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 191 / Tuesday, October 3, 2006 / Notices This proposal would create a new order type, the PL Order. The Commission believes that the proposal is reasonably designed to permit passive interaction with incoming orders while protecting displayed orders in the NYSE Arca Book that are priced at or better than the PL Order. In the Vanguard Letter, the commenter was concerned that the proposed PL Order would create a disincentive to displaying limit orders. The Commission emphasizes the fact that a PL Order would never execute ahead of a displayed order that is at the same or a better price. As noted above, PL Orders would be executed in the Working Order Process 19 after all other orders, including reserve orders and the display portion of discretionary orders at a particular price level.20 The Commission believes that the ability of LMMs appointed in primary listings on the Exchange to use the PL Order exclusively is consistent with the requirements of the Act. The Commission notes that NYSE specialists similarly have exclusive ability to provide price improvement to incoming orders on its Hybrid system only if the specialists are meaningfully represented in the BBO and provide a minimum amount of price improvement.21 LMMs appointed in primary listings would be able to use the PL Order only if (1) the NYSE Arca Book is at the NBBO, the order is priced better than the Exchange’s BBO by the Minimum Price Variation (‘‘MPV’’), and the LMM is quoting a certain minimum amount in proximity to the Exchange’s BBO 22 or (2) the NYSE Arca Book is not at the NBBO, the order is priced better than the Exchange’s BBO by the MPV, and the incoming order is not designated an inter-market sweep order.23 The Commission believes that permitting Users of the PL Order to provide price improvement by at least the MPV could increase the quality of NYSE Arca’s market, and that the condition that LMMs must quote a minimum amount in proximity to the Exchange’s BBO 19 See NYSE Arca Rule 7.37(b)(2). also noted above, PL Orders would, however, take precedence over undisplayed discretionary order interest. 21 See NYSE Rule 104. 22 If the NYSE Arca Book is at the NBBO, the LMM must have a displayed bid (offer) that is either equal to the NYSE Arca Marketplace BBO with a quoted size at least as large as the total size of the incoming marketable sell (buy) order against which the PL Order would trade or $0.01 below (above) the NYSE Arca Marketplace BBO with a quoted size at least twice as large as the total size of the incoming marketable sell (buy) order against which the PL Order would trade. 23 See 17 CFR 242.600(b)(30). rwilkins on PROD1PC63 with NOTICES 20 As VerDate Aug<31>2005 19:59 Oct 02, 2006 Jkt 211001 might enhance depth and liquidity at or near the Exchange’s BBO. VI. Accelerated Approval of Amendment Nos. 3 and 4 The Commission finds good cause for approving Amendment Nos. 3 and 4 to the proposed rule change prior to the thirtieth day after the amendment is published for comment in the Federal Register pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act.24 In Amendment No. 3, the Exchange proposed that in issues where NYSE Arca Marketplace is the primary listing market and there is an LMM, the PL Order would be available only to the LMM registered in the primary listing. The Exchange also proposed that LMMs would be held to certain performance obligations related to quote size and quote spread. In Amendment No. 4, the Exchange proposed that LMMs who are registered in the primary listing of an issue on the NYSE Arca Marketplace will have exclusive access to PL Orders only if such LMMs comply with certain quoting and price improvement requirements. The Commission believes that limiting use of the PL Order to LMMs registered in a primary listing raises no novel issue of regulatory concern because, as noted above, the Commission recently approved a similar functionality for New York Stock Exchange ‘‘NYSE’’ specialists.25 Under NYSE Hybrid Rules, NYSE specialists may employ algorithms which generate trading messages that provide price improvement to incoming orders only if the specialist is represented in a meaningful amount in the NYSE’s BBO.26 Accordingly, the Commission finds good cause to accelerate approval of Amendment Nos. 3 and 4. VII. Conclusion It is therefore ordered, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,27 that the proposed rule change (SR–PCX–2005– 53), as amended by Amendment Nos. 1 and 2, be, and it hereby is, approved, and that Amendment Nos. 3 and 4 are approved on an accelerated basis. For the Commission, by the Division of Market Regulation, pursuant to delegated authority.28 Nancy M. Morris, Secretary. [FR Doc.
