SR-Phlx-2016-58)

Self-Regulatory Organizations; NASDAQ BX, Inc.; The Nasdaq Stock
Market LLC; NASDAQ PHLX LLC; Notice of Filing of Amendments No. 1 and
Order Granting Accelerated Approval of Proposed Rule Changes, as
Modified by Amendments No. 1, To Adopt Limit Order Protections

August 24, 2016.

I. Introduction

    On June 24, 2016, NASDAQ BX, Inc. (``BX''), The Nasdaq Stock Market
LLC (``Nasdaq''), and NASDAQ PHLX LLC (``Phlx,'' and together with BX
and Nasdaq, ``Exchanges'') filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission''), pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-4
thereunder,\2\ proposed rule changes to adopt Limit Order Protections
(``LOP''). The proposed rule changes were published for comment in the
Federal Register on July 13, 2016.\3\ On July 28, 2016, each of the
Exchanges filed an Amendment No. 1 to its proposed rule change
(collectively ``Amendments No. 1'').\4\ The Commission received no
comment letters on the proposals. The Commission is publishing this
notice to solicit comments on the Exchanges' proposals, as modified by
Amendments No. 1, from interested persons and is approving the
Exchanges' proposals, as modified by Amendments No. 1, on an
accelerated basis.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
    \3\ See Securities Exchange Act Release Nos. 78244 (July 7,
2016), 81 FR 45320 (``BX Notice''); 78246 (July 7, 2016), 81 FR
45332 (``Nasdaq Notice''); and 78245 (July 7, 2016), 81 FR 45337
(``Phlx Notice'').
    \4\ Each of the Exchanges specified in its Amendment No. 1 that
LOP would not apply if there is no established LOP Reference Price,
or if the National Best Bid, when used as the LOP Reference Price,
is equal to or less than $0.50. In addition, in its Amendment No. 1,
Nasdaq clarified that it reserves the ability to temporarily disable
LOP for certain securities in the event of extraordinary market
conditions and explained the process for temporarily disabling LOP.
Nasdaq also clarified that LOP would not be operational for orders
designated for the re-opening cross, and further explained the
existing protections for the Nasdaq opening, re-opening, and closing
crosses and initial public offerings. Amendment No. 1 to the BX
filing is available at https://www.sec.gov/comments/sr-bx-2016-037/bx2016037-1.pdf. Amendment No. 1 to the Nasdaq filing is available
at https://www.sec.gov/comments/sr-nasdaq-2016-067/nasdaq2016067-1.pdf (``Nasdaq Amendment No. 1''). Amendment No. 1 to the Phlx
filing is available at https://www.sec.gov/comments/sr-phlx-2016-58/phlx201658-1.pdf.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

II. Description of the Proposed Rule Changes, as Modified by Amendments
No. 1

    Each of the Exchanges proposes to adopt LOP, which is a new
mandatory feature designed to prevent certain Limit Orders at prices
outside of pre-set standard limits (``LOP Limit'') from being accepted
by the System.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See proposed BX Rule 4757(d); proposed Nasdaq Rule 4757(c);
and proposed NASDAQ OMX PSX (``PSX'') Rule 3307(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As proposed, LOP would apply to all Quotes and Orders, including
any modified Orders,\6\ but would not apply to Market Orders, Market
Maker Peg Orders, and Intermarket Sweep Orders (``ISOs'').\7\ According
to the Exchanges, Market Maker Peg Orders are designed to assist Market
Makers with meeting their quoting obligations, and Market Makers have
more sophisticated infrastructures than other market participants and
are able to manage their risk, particularly with respect to quoting,
using tools that may not be available to other market participants.\8\
Moreover, according to the Exchanges, the ISO designation on an order
presumes that the market participant has satisfied its obligation to
route to all protected quotes with a price that is superior to the
limit price of the ISO.\9\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ The Exchanges state that if an order is modified, LOP would
review the order anew and, if LOP is triggered, the modification
would not take effect and the original order would be rejected. See
BX Notice, supra note 3, at n.5; Nasdaq Notice, supra note 3, at
n.4; and Phlx Notice, supra note 3, at n.4.
    \7\ See proposed BX Rule 4757(d)(i); proposed Nasdaq Rule
4757(c)(i); and proposed PSX Rule 3307(f)(i).
    \8\ See BX Notice, supra note 3, at 45321; Nasdaq Notice, supra
note 3, at 45333; and Phlx Notice, supra note 3, at 45338.
    \9\ See BX Notice, supra note 3, at 45321; Nasdaq Notice, supra
note 3, at 45333; and Phlx Notice, supra note 3, at 45338. See also
BX Rule 4703(j); Nasdaq Rule 4703(j); and PSX Rule 3301B(j)
(discussing ISOs).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As proposed, LOP would be operational each trading day but would
not be operational during trading halts and pauses.\10\ On Nasdaq, LOP
also would not be operational for orders designated for the opening,
re-opening, and closing crosses and initial public offerings.\11\
According to Nasdaq, the opening, re-opening, closing, and initial
public offering processes already have their own price protections, and
these processes involve certain price discovery features that are
important in arriving at the best price.\12\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \10\ See proposed BX Rule 4757(d)(i); proposed Nasdaq Rule
4757(c)(i); and proposed PSX Rule 3307(f)(i).
    \11\ See proposed Nasdaq Rule 4757(c)(i) and Nasdaq Amendment
No. 1, supra note 4.
    \12\ See Nasdaq Amendment No. 1, supra note 4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    As proposed, LOP would reject incoming Limit Orders that exceed the
LOP Reference Threshold.\13\ The LOP Reference Threshold for buy orders
would be the LOP Reference Price (i.e., the current National Best
Offer) plus the applicable LOP Limit and the LOP Reference Threshold
for sell orders would be the LOP Reference Price (i.e., the current
National Best Bid) minus the applicable LOP Limit.\14\ The LOP Limit
would be the greater of 10% of the LOP Reference Price or $0.50 for all
securities across all trading sessions.\15\ LOP would not apply if
there is no established LOP Reference Price (e.g., there is a one-sided
quote), or if the National Best Bid, when used as the

LOP Reference Price, is equal to or less than $0.50.\16\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ Specifically, a buy Limit Order would be rejected if the
price of the Limit Order is greater than the LOP Reference Threshold
and a sell Limit Order would be rejected if the price of the Limit
Order is less than the LOP Reference Threshold. See proposed BX Rule
4757(d)(v); proposed Nasdaq Rule 4757(c)(v); and proposed PSX Rule
3307(f)(v).
    \14\ See proposed BX Rule 4757(d)(iii)-(iv); proposed Nasdaq
Rule 4757(c)(iii)-(iv); and proposed PSX Rule 3307(f)(iii)-(iv).
    \15\ See proposed BX Rule 4757(d)(ii); proposed Nasdaq Rule
4757(c)(ii); and proposed PSX Rule 3307(f)(ii).
    \16\ See proposed BX Rule 4757(d)(i); proposed Nasdaq Rule
4757(c)(i); and proposed PSX Rule 3307(f)(i). See also Amendments
No. 1, supra note 4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    LOP would be applicable on all protocols available on each of the
Exchanges.\17\ While each of the Exchanges intends to apply LOP system-
wide, each reserves the ability to temporarily disable LOP for certain
securities in the event of extraordinary market conditions in a certain
symbol.\18\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \17\ See BX Notice, supra note 3, at 45321; Nasdaq Notice, supra
note 3, at 45333; and Phlx Notice, supra note 3, at 45338.
    \18\ Each of the Exchanges states that if LOP is temporarily
disabled for a particular symbol, it would immediately notify market
participants by sending an Equities Trader Alert. It would re-enable
LOP as soon as is reasonably practicable and send an updated alert
to notify participants that LOP was enabled. See BX Notice, supra
note 3, at 45321; Nasdaq Amendment No. 1, supra note 4; and Phlx
Notice, supra note 3, at 45338.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Each of the Exchanges proposes to implement LOP within ninety days
of the approval of its proposal and will issue an Equities Trader Alert
in advance to inform market participants of the implementation
date.\19\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \19\ See BX Notice, supra note 3, at 45321; Nasdaq Notice, supra
note 3, at 45333; and Phlx Notice, supra note 3, at 45338. For a
more detailed description of the proposed rule changes, see BX
Notice, Nasdaq Notice, and Phlx Notice, supra note 3 and Amendments
No. 1, supra note 4. See also proposed BX Rule 4757(d); proposed
Nasdaq Rule 4757(c); and proposed PSX Rule 3307(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

III. Discussion and Commission Findings

    The Commission finds that the proposed rule changes, as modified by
Amendments No. 1, are consistent with the requirements of the Act and
the rules and regulations thereunder applicable to a national
securities exchange.\20\ Specifically, the Commission finds that the
proposals are consistent with Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,\21\ 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.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \20\ In approving these proposed rule changes, the Commission
has considered the proposed rules' impact on efficiency,
competition, and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C. 78c(f).
    \21\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Commission believes that the LOP mechanism will help the
Exchanges to identify and reject mispriced Limit Orders, which will
help prevent the execution of Limit Orders at unintended and
potentially erroneous prices. The Commission also believes that the LOP
mechanism will be specifically tailored to address the Limit Orders are
not already subject to price protection mechanisms or other risk
mitigation mechanisms.\22\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \22\ For example, as noted above, Market Makers on the Exchanges
have tools to manage their risks with respect to quoting, and
Nasdaq's opening, re-opening, closing, and initial public offering
processes already have their own price protections. See supra notes
8 and 12 and accompanying text.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For the foregoing reasons, the Commission finds that the proposed
rule changes, as modified by Amendments No. 1, are consistent with
Section 6(b)(5) of the Act \23\ and the rules and regulations
thereunder applicable to national securities exchanges.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \23\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

V. Accelerated Approval of Proposed Rule Changes, as Modified by
Amendments No. 1

    The Commission finds good cause to approve the proposed rule
changes, as modified by Amendments No. 1, prior to the thirtieth day
after the date of publication of Amendments No. 1 in the Federal
Register. As described above,\24\ the amendments provided more clarity
to the proposals by stating that LOP would not apply if the National
Best Bid, when used as the LOP Reference Price, is equal to or less
than $0.50.\25\ In addition, Nasdaq specified that its LOP would not be
operational for orders designated for the re-opening cross,\26\ and
provided additional information regarding the existing protections for
the Nasdaq opening, re-opening, and closing crosses and initial public
offerings. Finally, Nasdaq clarified that, same as BX and Phlx, it
would have the ability to temporarily disable LOP under certain
circumstances.\27\ The Commission believes that the amendments provided
additional specificity and clarity, and provided consistency between
the three proposals. Accordingly, the Commission finds good cause,
pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,\28\ to approve the

proposed rule changes, as modified by Amendments No. 1, on an
accelerated basis.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \24\ See supra note 4.
    \25\ The Commission notes that, in the original filings, each of
the Exchanges stated that LOP would not apply ``if the LOP Reference
Price is less than the greater of 10% or $0.50.'' See BX Notice,
supra note 3, at n.8; Nasdaq Notice, supra note 3, at n.8; and Phlx
Notice, supra note 3, at n.7.
    \26\ The Commission notes that Nasdaq's original filing stated
that LOP is not operational during trading halts or pauses. See
proposed Nasdaq Rule 4757(c)(i).
    \27\ BX's and Phlx's ability to temporarily disable LOP and
their processes for temporarily disabling LOP were described in
their original filings. See BX Notice, supra note 3, at 45321 and
Phlx Notice, supra note 3, at 45338.
    \28\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2).
