Pegged Orders Stay on Book When NBBO/NBO Unavailable

BZX Aligns Pegged Order Rules With Affiliates
The Exchange amended Rule 11.9(c)(8) to align its Pegged Order text with the corresponding rules of its affiliate exchanges EDGA and EDGX to provide consistent Pegged Order offerings across the three exchanges.
Pegged Orders Get New Timestamp When Re-Eligible
The amended rule provides that a Pegged Order that was ineligible for execution because the NBB or NBO was unavailable will receive a new time stamp when the NBB or NBO becomes available again and the order becomes eligible for execution.
