Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 176 / Tuesday, September 11, 2012 / Notices would otherwise, except for the specified restrictions on trading with certain incoming orders, operate as a PL Order and retain its standing in execution priority among PL Orders. In the instances when an incoming order meets one of the PL Select Order restrictions, the PL Select Order would not interact with the incoming order and could be traded through. The Exchange believes that the restrictions on trading with incoming IOC or ISO orders would enable Users 8 to designate that their PL Orders would not trade with interest that would never become displayed or passive liquidity on the Exchange. The Exchange believes that the final restriction would serve to attract larger-sized PL Orders because the User would not have to risk having the PL Select Order being swept up by larger-sized contra interest, thereby obviating the primary purpose of the PL Order types: to provide price improvement. The Exchange further proposes that upon notice to ETP Holders, the Corporation 9 may suspend the entry of PL Select Orders. If such provision is invoked, Users may continue to submit PL Orders, but would not be able to enter PL Select Orders and all open PL Select Orders on the NYSE Arca trading book would be cancelled back to the User. The Exchange believes that it is appropriate to be able to suspend the entry of PL Select Orders in circumstances where the volume of orders creates an issue with the ability of the Exchange to timely process inbound orders to the Exchange. Because of the related technology changes that this proposed rule change would require, the Exchange proposes to announce the initial implementation date via Trader Update. srobinson on DSK4SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES III. Discussion and Commission Findings After careful review, the Commission finds that the proposed rule change is consistent with the requirements of the Act and the rules and regulations thereunder applicable to a national securities exchange.10 In particular, the Commission finds that the proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,11 which requires, among other things, that the rules of a national securities exchange be 8 See Arca Equities Rule 1.1(yy) (defining the term ‘‘User’’). 9 See Arca Equities Rule 1.1(k) (defining the term ‘‘Corporation’’). 10 In approving this proposed rule change, the Commission has considered the proposed rule’s impact on efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C. 78c(f). 11 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5). VerDate Mar<15>2010 19:10 Sep 10, 2012 Jkt 226001 designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to promote just and equitable principles of trade, 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; and are not designed to permit unfair discrimination between customers, issuers, brokers or dealers. The Commission finds the instant proposed rule change to be consistent with the Act. The Commission notes that the Exchange believes that the proposed rule change should allow PL Select Order users to avoid interacting with market participants that are submitting orders primarily for the purpose of probing for or ‘‘pinging’’ hidden interest on the NYSE Arca book as opposed to adding liquidity to the market. The Exchange also indicates that the probing or ‘‘pinging’’ interest that PL Select Orders would avoid is more likely to come from professional traders than non-professional traders. In addition, the Exchange believes that use of the PL Select Order could attract displayed liquidity that would be eligible for execution against PL Select Orders or posting on the NYSE Arca book if not executed by PL Select Orders or other resting liquidity. The Commission notes further that the Exchange believes that, because PL Select Orders would not interact with larger-sized incoming interest, market participants could be incentivized to use PL Select Orders to provide price improvement opportunities, thereby promoting more favorable executions for the benefit of public customers. In addition, the Exchange believes that market participants also could be incentivized to route more aggressively priced, displayable interest to the Exchange because of an increased likelihood of receiving price improvement. Based on the Exchange’s statements, the Commission believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b)(5) of the Act. IV. Conclusion It is therefore ordered, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,12 that the proposed rule change (SR–NYSEArca– 2012–48) be, and it hereby is, approved. 55889 For the Commission, by the Division of Trading and Markets, pursuant to delegated authority.13 Kevin M.
