II. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule
Change
In its filing with the Commission, the
self-regulatory organization included
statements concerning the purpose of,
and basis for, the proposed rule change
and discussed any comments it received
on the proposed rule change. The text
of those statements may be examined at
the places specified in Item IV below.
The Exchange has prepared summaries,
set forth in sections A, B, and C below,
of the most significant parts of such
statements.
1. Purpose
The Exchange proposes to amend
NYSE American Equities Rules 7.31E
(Orders and Modifiers) (‘‘Rule 7.31E’’) to
establish a minimum dollar threshold
into the price protection mechanisms
provided for in the rule.
Background
Rule 7.31E(a)(1)(B) describes the price
protection mechanism for Market
Orders, i.e., Trading Collars. Currently,
Rule 7.31E(a)(1)(B)(i) provides that the
Trading Collar will be based on a price
that is a specified percentage away from
the consolidated last sale price. Rule
7.31E(a)(1)(B)(i) further provides that
the upper (lower) boundary of the
Trading Collar is the consolidated last
sale price increased (decreased) by the
specified percentage truncated to the
minimum price variation (‘‘MPV’’) for
the security.
Additionally, Rule 7.31E(a)(2)(B)
(‘‘Limit Order Price Protection’’)
provides the price protection
mechanism for Limit Orders and that a
Limit Order to buy (sell) will be rejected
if it is priced at or above (below) a
specified percentage away from the
National Best Offer (National Best Bid)
(‘‘NBO’’ and ‘‘NBB’’, respectively).
Proposed Changes
• Trading Collar: The Exchange
proposes to amend Rule 7.31E(a)(1)(B)(i)
to introduce a minimum dollar
threshold, of $0.15, into the calculation
of the Trading Collar. As such, the
proposed rule would provide that the
Trading Collar would be based on a
price that is the greater of $0.15 or a
specified percentage away from the
consolidated last sale price.
Accordingly, the upper (lower)
boundary of the Trading Collar would
be the consolidated last sale price
PO 00000
Frm 00105
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
50475
increased (decreased), by the greater of
$0.15 or the specified percentage.
• Limit Order Price Protection: The
Exchange proposes to amend Rule
7.31E(a)(2)(B) to introduce the same
proposed minimum dollar threshold
that is specified above for the Trading
Collar, of $0.15, into the Limit Order
Price Protection calculation.
Accordingly, the proposed rule would
provide that a Limit Order to buy (sell)
would be rejected if it was priced at or
above (below) the greater of $0.15 or a
specified percentage away from the
NBO (NBB). The Exchange believes that
the introduction of a minimum dollar
threshold enhances the Limit Order
Price Protection and encourages price
continuity specifically in lower priced
illiquid securities.
The Exchange believes that adding a
minimum dollar threshold to the
Trading Collar and Limit Order Price
Protection calculations would enhance
the respective price protection
mechanisms for securities with a
consolidated last sale price below $1.50
because using the current 10 percent
multiplier for such securities would
result in too narrow of a price protection
mechanism. This proposed rule change
is consistent with how other exchanges
specify static price collar thresholds for
lower-price securities. For example,
NYSE Arca, Inc. (‘‘NYSE Arca’’) Rule
7.35–E(e)(7) 4 provides that for securities
with a consolidated last sale price under
$3.00, the price collar threshold for
auction collars would be a static $0.15
instead of 5 percent.5
In addition, the Exchange proposes to
replace the word ‘‘truncated’’ with the
words ‘‘rounded down’’ 6 in Rule
7.31E(a)(1)(B)(i). The Exchange that
believes that conforming the
terminology used within Rule 7.31E 7
and elsewhere in Exchange’s rules
promotes clarity and transparency.
4 See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 79846
(January 19, 2017), 82 FR 8548 (January 26, 2017)
(SR–NYSEArca–2016–130).
5 See also Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (‘‘Nasdaq’’)
Rule 4703(d) (providing that ‘‘any portion of a
Primary Pegging Order or Market Pegging Order that
would execute . . . at a price more than $0.25 or
5 percent worse that the NBBO . . . will be
cancelled)’’ and Bats BZX Exchange, Inc. (‘‘Bats’’)
Rule 27.2, Interpretations and Policies .01 and Bats
Rule 11.13 (stating that Bats ‘‘will not execute any
portion of a bid at a price more than the greater of
5 cents or 0.5 percent higher than the lowest
Protected Offer’’).
6 See Rule 7.46E(f)(2)(A), which provides that
references to truncating to the MPV in Exchange
rules instead mean rounding down to the applicable
quoting MPV.
7 See Rule 7.31E(a)(2)(B) which provides that
‘‘Limit Order Price Protection will be rounded
down to the nearest price at the applicable MPV.’’

Implementation
The Exchange anticipates
implementing the proposed changes in
the fourth quarter of 2017 and will
announce the timing of such changes by
Trader Update.
2. Statutory Basis
The Exchange believes that the
proposed rule change is consistent with
Section 6(b) of the Exchange Act,8 in
general, and with Section 6(b)(5),9 in
particular, because it is designed to
prevent fraudulent and manipulative
acts and practices, to promote just and
equitable principles of trade, to foster
cooperation and coordination with
persons engaged in facilitating
transactions in securities, 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.
The Exchange believes the proposed
changes would 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,
because they would enhance the
Exchange’s price protection
mechanisms, which protect from
aberrant prices and reduce the
likelihood of halts, thus improving
continuous trading and price discovery.
Further, the proposal to enhance the
price protection mechanisms by adding
a minimum dollar threshold would
assist with the maintenance of fair and
orderly markets because such
mechanisms protect investors from
potentially receiving executions away
from the prevailing market prices at any
given time. The proposed changes to
introduce the $0.15 minimum dollar
threshold is not novel and is similar in
nature to that of other national
securities exchanges which incorporate
dollar thresholds into the calculation of
the respective price protection
mechanisms.10
For similar reasons, the Exchange also
believes that the proposed rule change
is consistent with Section 6(b)(5) of the
Act,11 in that it is designed to prevent
fraudulent and manipulative acts and
practices, to promote just and equitable
principles of trade, to foster cooperation
and coordination with persons engaged
in facilitating transactions in securities,
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.
B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Burden on Competition
The Exchange does not believe that
the proposed rule change will impose
any burden on competition that is not
necessary or appropriate in furtherance
of the purposes of the Act. The
proposed rule change is not intended to
address competitive issues but rather
provide for a more effective price
protection mechanism, specifically for
lower-priced securities.
C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Comments on the
Proposed Rule Change Received From
Members, Participants, or Others
No written comments were solicited
or received with respect to the proposed
rule change.
III. Date of Effectiveness of the
Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action
Because the foregoing proposed rule
change does not: (i) Significantly affect
the protection of investors or the public
interest; (ii) impose any significant
burden on competition; and (iii) become
operative for 30 days from the date on
which it was filed, or such shorter time
as the Commission may designate, it has
become effective pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A)(iii) of the Act 12 and
subparagraph (f)(6) of Rule 19b–4
thereunder.13
At any time within 60 days of the
filing of the proposed rule change, the
Commission summarily may
temporarily suspend such rule change if
it appears to the Commission that such
action is: (i) Necessary or appropriate in
the public interest; (ii) for the protection
of investors; or (iii) otherwise in
furtherance of the purposes of the Act.
If the Commission takes such action, the
Commission shall institute proceedings
to determine whether the proposed rule
should be approved or disapproved.
IV. Solicitation of Comments
Interested persons are invited to
submit written data, views, and
arguments concerning the foregoing,
including whether the proposed rule
change is consistent with the Act.
Comments may be submitted by any of
the following methods:

the Commission written notice of its intent to file
the proposed rule change at least five business days
prior to the date of filing of the proposed rule
change, or such shorter time as designated by the

A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and the
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change
1. Purpose
The Exchange proposes to amend NYSE American Equities Rules 7.31E
(Orders and Modifiers) (``Rule 7.31E'') to establish a minimum dollar
threshold into the price protection mechanisms provided for in the
rule.
Background
Rule 7.31E(a)(1)(B) describes the price protection mechanism for
Market Orders, i.e., Trading Collars. Currently, Rule 7.31E(a)(1)(B)(i)
provides that the Trading Collar will be based on a price that is a

7.31E(a)(1)(B)(i) further provides that the upper (lower) boundary of
the Trading Collar is the consolidated last sale price increased
(decreased) by the specified percentage truncated to the minimum price
variation (``MPV'') for the security.
Additionally, Rule 7.31E(a)(2)(B) (``Limit Order Price
Protection'') provides the price protection mechanism for Limit Orders
and that a Limit Order to buy (sell) will be rejected if it is priced
at or above (below) a specified percentage away from the National Best
Offer (National Best Bid) (``NBO'' and ``NBB'', respectively).
Proposed Changes
Trading Collar: The Exchange proposes to amend Rule
7.31E(a)(1)(B)(i) to introduce a minimum dollar threshold, of $0.15,
into the calculation of the Trading Collar. As such, the proposed rule
would provide that the Trading Collar would be based on a price that is
the greater of $0.15 or a specified percentage away from the
consolidated last sale price. Accordingly, the upper (lower) boundary
of the Trading Collar would be the consolidated last sale price
increased (decreased), by the greater of $0.15 or the specified
percentage.
Limit Order Price Protection: The Exchange proposes to
amend Rule 7.31E(a)(2)(B) to introduce the same proposed minimum dollar
threshold that is specified above for the Trading Collar, of $0.15,
into the Limit Order Price Protection calculation. Accordingly, the
proposed rule would provide that a Limit Order to buy (sell) would be

Rule 7.35-E(e)(7) \4\ provides that for securities with a consolidated
last sale price under $3.00, the price collar threshold for auction
collars would be a static $0.15 instead of 5 percent.\5\

2017), 82 FR 8548 (January 26, 2017) (SR-NYSEArca-2016-130).
