Listed and Nasdaq® Securities NYSE Arca will maintain an electronic file of orders, called the ArcaBook®, through which orders are displayed and matched for both listed and Nasdaq securities. The ArcaBook is divided into three processes:
The ArcaBook operates on an open basis. Orders at all price levels in the Display Order Process of the ArcaBook will be displayed to all users on an anonymous basis unless they are designated as attributed quotes. In addition, the same information will be made available to other interested parties. The best-ranked displayed order(s) to buy and sell in the ArcaBook and the corresponding aggregate size of such orders associated with such prices will be collected and made available to quotation vendors. Short Sale Processing Orders in NASDAQ stocks are not subject to the bid test as long as the order is matched in the ArcaBook. Short sales that are routed outside the ArcaBook will be subject to the short sale rules of the away market. Limit orders will be matched internally down to the limit price of the order and potentially outside the National Best Bid (NBB) if routing the order to an away market would not satisfy the away market short sale rule. In a down bid market when the NBB quote is from an away market with a bid test, market orders will be posted to the ArcaBook at the NBB until they are eligible to trade at the NBB or better. S: Symbols that are dually listed on NASDAQ and NYSE Arca will not be subject to the bid test when executing short sales. These stocks will be processed subject to the short sale rules for OTC stocks and therefore are not subject to the bid test as long as the order is matched in the ArcaBook.
