723; 15 and (10) adopt new MRX Rule
724 to establish various risk protections
for Complex Orders.16 The proposal also
includes non-substantive and technical
changes related to the adoption of the
Complex Order functionality.
III. Discussion and Commission
Findings
After careful review, the Commission
finds that the proposed rule change is
consistent with the requirements of the
Act,17 and the rules and regulations
thereunder applicable to a national
securities exchange.18 In particular, the
Commission finds that the proposed
rule change is consistent with Section
6(b)(5) of the Act,19 which requires,
among other things, that the rules of a
national securities exchange be
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
that the rules are not designed to permit
unfair discrimination between
customers, issuers, brokers, or dealers.
The Commission believes that the
proposed rules are consistent with the
Act because they are substantially
identical to ISE’s rules governing the
trading of Complex Orders, which the
Commission has reviewed previously.
Because they are substantially identical
to ISE’s Complex Order rules, MRX’s
proposed rules do not raise new or
novel regulatory issues. The
Commission believes that the proposed
rules could assist market participants in
making informed decisions regarding
the trading of Complex Orders on MRX,
including the order types, priority,
auction and crossing mechanisms, and
risk protections available for Complex
Orders traded on MRX.
IV. Conclusion
It is therefore ordered, pursuant to
Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,20 that the
15 The Exchange represents that the Complex
Price Improvement Mechanism in proposed MRX
Rule 723(e) is identical to ISE Rule 723(e). See id.
16 MRX proposes to adopt the following Complex
Order risk protections: Price Limits, Vertical Spread
Protections, Calendar Spread Protections, Butterfly
and Box Spread Protections, Limit Order Price
Protections, Size Limitations, and Price Level
Protections. The Exchange represents that proposed
MRX Rule 724 is identical to ISE Rule 724. See id.
17 15 U.S.C. 78f.
18 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).
