Act’’) 1 and Rule 19b–4 thereunder,2 a
proposed rule change to amend the
definition of ‘‘complex strategy’’ in
Exchange Rule 5.33(a) to allow the
Exchange to create new complex
strategies. In addition, the proposal
amends Exchange Rule 5.33(b)(2) to
provide that, in a class in which the
Exchange determines that complex
orders with Capacity M or N are not
eligible for entry into the Complex
Order Book (‘‘COB’’), the Exchange may
determine that a complex order with
Capacity M or N may enter the COB in
complex strategies designated by the
Exchange.3 The proposed rule change
was published for comment in the
Federal Register on March 28, 2024.4
On April 4, 2024, the Exchange filed
Amendment No. 1 to the proposed rule
change.5 The Commission has received
no comment letters regarding the
proposal. The Commission is publishing
this notice to solicit comment on
Amendment No. 1 and is approving the
proposed rule change, as modified by
Amendment No. 1, on an accelerated
basis.
II. Description of the Proposed Rule
Change, as Modified by Amendment
No. 1
The definition of complex strategy in
Exchange Rule 5.33(a) provides that
new complex strategies may be created
as the result of the receipt of a complex
instrument creation request or the
receipt of a complex order for a complex
strategy that is not currently in the
Exchange’s system.6 The Exchange
proposes to revise this definition to also
allow the Exchange to create new
complex strategies. The Exchange states
that customers will continue to have the
1 15
U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
CFR 240.19b–4.
3 The Exchange states that the origin code ‘‘M’’
represents Exchange Market-Makers, and the origin
code ‘‘N’’ represents market makers or specialists
on another exchange (‘‘away market makers’’). The
Exchange states that, currently, orders representing
any capacity, including M and N, are eligible for
entry and may rest on the COB in all classes except
S&P 500 Index (‘‘SPX’’) and Cboe Volatility Index
(‘‘VIX’’) options. In SPX and VIX options, M and N
complex orders are not eligible for entry into the
COB except as set forth in Exchange Rule 5.33(b)(2).
See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 99838
(March 22, 2024), 89 FR 21548, 21549, n.3 (March
28, 2024) (‘‘Notice’’) and Amendment No. 1.
4 See Notice, supra note 3.
5 Amendment No. 1 revises the proposal to
correct descriptions of the current complex book
process by stating that Market-Makers and away
market makers currently are not permitted to enter
orders in VIX options, as well as SPX options, in
the COB. Amendment No. 1 makes no changes to
Exhibit 5 of the proposal. Amendment No. 1 is
available on the Commission’s website at https://
