Early Trade Checking -- Mansfield Trading Room/Ags

BROKERS, TRADERS AND TRADE CHECKERS IN THE MANSFIELD TRADING ROOM ARE TO BE ON THE FLOOR BY 7:45 A.M., FRIDAY, DECEMBER 1, 2006.

Firms are urged to reconcile as many transactions as possible this afternoon.

Member firms are responsible for ensuring the attendance of their trade checkers. If a trade checker is needed and is not already present, the trade checker must respond to a phone call/page and arrive in the trade checking area within 5 minutes. Brokers, traders and/or their designated agents must be available by phone/page at 8:30 a.m. and must arrive in the trade checking area within 5 minutes if phoned/paged to reconcile a trade.

The Floor Conduct Committee may assess penalties up to $1,000.00 for members or member firms that fail to comply with the Exchange’s trade checking requirements.

Trade checkers are only permitted to check trades and reconcile transactions for and on behalf of their employers outside the trading pit. Checking trades within the pit, including before the opening of trading, creates additional unnecessary congestion.

Trading pits and space within the pit are the priority of the Members of the Exchange. Therefore, trade checkers are respectfully requested to reconcile their transactions in designated trade-checking areas.
