Dmm vs floor broker.
With the floor closure and no manual dmm or floor broker processes nyse is using an electronic facilitated auction which also uses price range boundaries.
But the order is not received by the dmm until after 4 00 p m.
The floor brokers specialists and designated market makers dmms on the trading floor are the face of.
In contrast nyse confers special advantages to its single dmm and floor brokers.
Quotes offered by the dmm are on par with what floor brokers offer and the dmm is obligated to quote at the national best bid or offer for a percentage of the time.
But before the closing print because of system processing time the dmm should take this interest into account when formulating the close.
However our understanding is that there are now more market and limit on close orders left unfilled which get canceled back to the buyer or seller who is typically an institutional customer.
The floor broker electronically enters an order before 4 00 p m.
Floor brokers execute trades on behalf of institutional and high net worth clients.
