the same lower Simple Order Fee for
Removing Liquidity in SPY of $0.47 per
contract, except for Customers.
Customer orders bring valuable liquidity
to the market, which liquidity benefits
other market participants. Customer
liquidity benefits all market participants
by providing more trading
opportunities, which attracts Specialists
and Market Makers. An increase in the
activity of these market participants in
turn facilitates tighter spreads, which
may cause an additional corresponding
increase in order flow from other market
participants.
