Displays quotes on all exchanges where a stock is listed.Today the ITS is a relic, too slow to be of much use.Payment for Order FlowBrokers drum up orders, deal with customersBrokers sell the order flow to crossing networks, who profit from the order flow.November 2000 SEC posted rules that brokers must post composite statistics on fraction of order flow going to various places.Firms must also report statistics on their order-execution qualityThe Battle of the PlatformsExchanges merge to try to gain critical massRumors of possible NYSE-Nasdaq mergerEuronext merges European stock exchangesInstinet buys Island 2002 (to form Inet.com).

Then, Optimal Bid-Asked SpreadDealer must set a bid-asked spread in consideration of the ultimate probability of ruin and dealer’s utility weighting of this outcomeDealer has inferior information, expects to be “picked off” by superior traders.Must set bid-asked spread so that the amount of gain from spread offsets the expected loss.NYSE: The Specialist’s Post, Book and the CrowdNYSE specialist maintains a book like Island’s, but it is not public, yet.NYSE, AMEX, and Montreal are about the only remaining specialist exchangesSpecialist has obligation to maintain an orderly marketNYSE Rule 390 (prohibiting members from trading off exchange) abolished May 5, 2000The Crowd, NYSEFloor brokers cluster around specialist post, and trade among themselvesAbout 50% of NYSE share volume (though only about 10% of trades) go through floor brokers, not through specialist’s bookIn addition to the crowd, there are the “upstairs traders” who handle very large orders.Myth: Stock trading is going all electronicElectronic trading remains a venue for small tradesIf they close the NYSE floor, the floor traders will just go upstairs.Frankfurt, London, Paris, Toronto electronic exchanges: between 40% to 60% of trades were never orders on the book (though trade may be ultimately reported there.)Books have too much transparency, large orders tip their hand too much by putting it on book.Criticism of NASDAQWilliam Christie & Paul Schultz , Journal of Finance, Dec. 1994, pointed out that “odd eighths” spreads were rare on NASDAQ: dealers rarely quote prices ending in 1/8, 3/8, 5/8 and 7/8.Therefore inside spread is always at least ¼.Day after study reported in news, spreads narrow.Authors interpret as evidence of tacit collusion.Federal class action lawsuit against NASDAQ won $1.03 billion in 1998.Disadvantage to Limit OrdersPlacing a limit order is being a sitting duck. If more in-the-know investors realize stock price is higher than in your sell order, they will buy from you at your price. In an expected value sense, your orders can be filled only in this unfortunate case. Problem is enhanced by decimal trading. When a specialist has the slightest inkling that there is greater demand for the stock, can pick up shares selling for just pennies above market. “Getting pennied by the specialist.”The CNBC EffectSuccessor of Financial News Network 1983NYSE trades above, color indicates direction of tradeNASDAQ trades belowThe CNBC EffectRapid Dissemination of financial innovationCnnFn, Bloomberg New are the two cable TV competitors to CNBCClaims that because of CNBC, markets respond much more rapidly to information.But viewership on a typical day is no more than a few hundred thousand.
