Floor Brokers Regain Risk Controls
If you are a Floor broker, the NYSE restored and expanded your ability to set Pre-Trade Risk Controls and Kill Switch Actions for trading done using a member organization's MPID, with access to the full suite except for three limited exceptions. The Exchange plans to implement this change in the first quarter of 2026 and no later than the end of the second quarter of 2026.
Symbol-Level Controls Still Restricted
Floor brokers using a member organization's MPID will not have access to three single-order, symbol-level risk controls identified in paragraph (b)(2)(D) of Rule 7.19, such as sell-short controls for individual symbols and limitations on restricted symbols. The Exchange said it may file a proposed rule change later if it decides to make those specific controls available.
