Patent number: 11935121Abstract: An unpriced order auction and related market center and process are disclosed which allow posting market centers (e.g., exchanges) to schedule an auction that includes unpriced (Market) orders only. Such unpriced order auction executes at the midpoint of the NBBO, ensuring that the cross reflects the best prices in the entire marketplace, while discouraging the manipulation of the auction price on the posting market center. The disclosed auction also executes concurrently, but separately from the regular continuous matching process.Type: GrantFiled: February 8, 2023Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: NYSE Group, Inc.Inventors: Paul D. Adcock, Michael A. Cormack, Thomas F. Haller, Robert A. Hill

Publication number: 20230139223Abstract: An enhanced system and method for handling, matching and executing a diverse group of limit-priced orders in an electronic options environment is disclosed. Most of the order types disclosed are automatically repriced and reposted as the NBBO changes to increase their execution opportunities. Market maker entitlements are integrated with the order processing, so that the market maker is guaranteed an allocation of the trade if the market maker is at the NBBO when an order priced at or better than the NBBO is received. Once posted to the order book, the displayed price of an order may be eligible for preferential execution in a market maker entitlement process, regardless of whether the displayed price is original or has been automatically repriced.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 15, 2022Publication date: May 4, 2023Inventors: Paul D. Adcock, Michael A. Cormack, Amy Farnstrom, Robert A. Hill
