The server is ftp2east.nyxdata.com, it also one of the two servers defined for ftp2.nyxdata.com. This means that IP will be changing from 72.37.131.125 to 74.201.153.241 The old IP will be deprecated but still active and accepting connections until we are confident that our customers have been able to make the appropriate changes. That means that there will be no interruption of FTP sessions and connections to the deprecated IP will be honored. We plan to change the DNS A records for the above servers on the morning of Dec 19th. Customers will still be able to connect to the deprecated IP, only DNS resolved connections will go to the new IP. The new IP is currently active, please check that you have connectivity and consult your appropriate network/firewall team if changes need to be made. Our objective is shutdown the old IP by Jan 30th of this year but this is subject to review. In DNS terms the changes are Deprecated ftp2east.nyxdata.com 72.37.131.125 ftp2.nyxdata.com 72.37.131.125 New ftp2east.nyxdata.com 74.201.153.241 ftp2.nyxdata.com 74.201.153.241 The Chicago-based ftp server, ftp2west.nyxdata.com will remain unchanged.

Operational Issue: NYSE Consolidated Tape (CT) Opening Trades - NYSE Consolidated Tape (CT) Opening Trades for 9/15/2008

Mon, 15 Sep 2008 15:57:55 EST

NYSE Consolidated Tape (CT) Opening Trades for 9/15/2008 As previously reported, the Consolidated Trade System (CT) experienced problems this morning between the opening and approximately 9:38am. The system did not publish sales in Tape A securities (NYSE-listed) from any exchange in the security symbol range ''''A'''' through ''''L''''. The New York Stock Exchange has provided to the Consolidated Tape System all of its opening prints in the affected symbols, and the Consolidated Tape System has added these prints to the tape with an ''''N'''' exchange modifier, and an ''''OPD'''' trade modifier (indicating an out-of-sequence, opening trade). A file will be posted to the website shortly containing all NYSE opening trades. A subsequent message will be sent out at that time. Please note that different vendors will process trades marked with ''''OPD'''' differently for VWAP calculations. For example, Bloomberg will include these trades in its VWAP calculation while Thomson Reuters may not. If you have any questions regarding various VWAP calculations or other treatment of ''''OPD'''' trades, please contact your market data vendor.

ArcaBook for Equities - ArcaBook Multicast for Equities ‘A’ and ‘B’ Multicast channels will be synchronized on 2/4/08

Mon, 28 Jan 2008 17:01:44 EST

ArcaBook Multicast for Equities ‘A’ and ‘B’ Multicast channels will be synchronized on 2/4/08 Attached is the latest documentation for the ArcaBook Equities multicast datafeed to coincide with our Feb 4th Multicast release. The following are highlights of changes to our Multicast Spec. In addition, you will find that the ‘A’ and ‘B’ Multicast channels will be synchronized. Please make note of the below IP address changes and table below. 1) Added new bandwidth requirements for Compacted and Non-Compacted data feeds. 2) Moved the IP’s addresses to Appendix A and B in the Spec. 3) Changed the interval of Non-Compacted refresh time from 30 seconds to 15 seconds. 4) Added Retransmission Flag ‘6’ – Failover Retransmission. 5) Added Local failover event. 6) Updated TCP source IP Source IPs |-------------------------------------+--------------------------------- | Primary | Secondary | |-------------------------------------+--------------------------------- | 63.211.72.60 | 63.211.72.188 | |-------------------------------------+--------------------------------- | 63.211.72.64 | 63.211.72.192 | |-------------------------------------+--------------------------------- | 8.9.19.60 | 8.9.19.188 | |-------------------------------------+--------------------------------- | 8.9.19.63 | 8.9.19.191 | |-------------------------------------+--------------------------------- Multicast is the delivery of data to a group of destinations simultaneously to deliver messages over a network, thus maximizing the use of a client’s connectivity into NYSE Euronext. ArcaBook Multicast for Equities is available in both a FAST compacted and native binary format. This new feed offers several advantages over the legacy ArcaBook TCP/IP feed. It is faster, more reliable, and requires less bandwidth than the existing TCP/IP version.

Transitioning to multicast has allowed the product to scale more effectively to handle increases in message traffic and deliver data simultaneously to customers without the potential queuing that would experienced with a TCP/IP feed. In addition to the bandwidth and latency savings, the new multicast feed contains enriched data that is not available in the legacy feed. Customers are advised to transition to the ArcaBook Multicast for Equities Feed. There is no additional charge for this feed. The legacy TCP/IP ArcaBook feed is tentatively scheduled to be decommissioned in July 2008 and will not continue be supported.

Operational Issue: Daily TAQ (Historical Trades & Quotes) - TAQ - file delivery times

Fri, 25 Jan 2008 17:36:55 EST

TAQ - file delivery times This memo is meant to update you on our efforts to improve TAQ file availability times which have recently been later than expected as a direct result of consistent record volume. Last year, we invested heavily in additional network capacity and optimized production processes that reduced the average arrival time from 4 AM+ to 11 PM. However, recent record volume has caught up with these enhancements. We have renewed efforts to investigate and improve several areas for optimization. We expect some of these to provide an impact as early as next week. Changes with more impact lie further out as result of enterprise-wide system changes that were put in motion last year. On a separate note, TAQ will soon be available over SFTI in addition to your exiting internet connection. Using SFTI should be cheaper and faster for anyone who has already invested in a connection. Our ftp2west.nysedata.com server is already connected to SFTI and we will begin testing soon. Our objective is to make this an option for customers within a month. We hope that you can accept the improvements we made last year as evidence that we are committed to keeping pace with these capacity challenges and we will continue to provide regular updates as progress is made.

Fri, 02 Nov 2007 09:27:53 EST

Distribution changes for Short Interest as of Nov 6th Distribution changes for Short Interest as of Nov 6th After significant customer feedback we decided to simplify the ftp directories for the Short Interest semi-monthly. All files will now be written under the same root directory ftp.nysedata.com/shortint/ (NOTE:the attached Word doc is probably easier to read) The file is posted in these directories every cycle, i.e. whether it is a mid or end-of-month release. /shortint/shortint.ext (this is overwritten each time a file is posted so is always the most recent file) /shortint/shortintYYYY/shortintYYYYMM/shortintYYYYMMDD.ext where .ext is the file extension, i.e. .txt for delimited text file, .xls for Excel and .xml for XML YYYYMMDD is the year, month and *trade date* respectively, e.g. 20071106 is 2007, Nov 6th The trade date is a date that varies each cycle and is set by FINRA and is visible on this page: http://www.nysedata.com/nysedata/Default.aspx?TabId=197 Alternatively, the same files are written to indicate whether they are the mid or end of month files. Mid-month files are posted here: /shortint/shortintYYYY/shortintYYYYMM/shortintmidYYYYMM.ext End-of-month files are posted here: /shortint/shortintYYYY/shortintYYYYMM/shortintendYYYYMM.ext For automated download of the most recent file we recommend downloading and processing /shortint/shortint.ext as it will always be the most recent file. Examples For Nov 6th, an end-of-month cycle, the same file will be posted to: /shortint/shortint.ext /shortint/shortint2007/shortint200711/shortint20071026.ext /shortint/shortint2007/shortint200711/shortintend200710.ext Old directory scheme For your reference this was the previous directory scheme and will not be in use as of Nov 6th, 2007 For the mid-month publishing cycle the path and filename will change to: /shortintmid/shortintmidYYYY/shortintYYYYMM/shortintmidYYYYMM For the end of the month publishing cycle, the path and file name will change to: /shortintend/shortintendYYYY/shortintYYYYMM/shortintendYYYYMM

Tue, 17 Apr 2007 11:52:40 EST

NYSE Bonds launch on Monday April 23, 2007! On Friday, April 20, 2007 NYSE Bonds will rollout its new trading platform after market hours. The platform, which uses the design of the current NYSE Arca all-electronic trading platform, will provide a more efficient and transparent way to trade corporate bonds. On Monday, April 23, 2007 NYSE Bonds will start trading with the 820 bonds currently listed on ABS. Over the next few months NYSE Bonds will begin adding approximately 2,800 eligible new debt issues of our NYSE equity listings. Phase 1 will begin with the addition of 500 new issues added during the first month after the cutover. Notices will go out prior to trading these issues along with a list posted to the NYSE web site. Once the new platform goes live the current Automated Bond System (ABS) will operate in shadow mode for two weeks with no orders in the book and will be retired after successful cutover to the new platform. During this time any open GTC orders will need to be re-entered on the new platform in order to remain active. A quick reference of where to find specific information about NYSE Bonds Daily Bond Symbol List With CUSIP: There is a fee and an agreement that needs to be signed. This is available today http://www.nysedata.com/nysedata/Default.aspx?tabID=454 Without CUSIP: No Fee – Will be available at launch http://www.nyse.com/productservices/securities/1095449059236.html Quote and Last Sale Feeds NYSE Bonds will not publish quotes or last sales via any of the SIP’s .

Product Updates: NYSE InfoTools - NYSE InfoTools Format Conversion on 4/12/07

Wed, 28 Mar 2007 13:58:17 EST

NYSE InfoTools Format Conversion on 4/12/07On April 12, 2007 the old ReTrac/ProTrac datafeed format will be decommisioned. Clients listening to the new InfoTools format should repoint their applications to join the Production IP mulitcast groups instead of the Test IP muliticast group. No data will be available on the test IP multicast groups intra-day. The NYSE Trades EOD file will continue to be offered to NYSE InfoTools clients. Clients of the ReTrac and ProTrac EOD Replay files, please note that with the decommissioning of the old ReTrac and ProTrac format, only the new format files will be produced from 4/12/07 on-wards. On Feb 5, 2007 the NYSE InfoTools feed introduced a new message format to take advantage of the same bandwidth and latency improvements we have made to our other data feeds such as NYSE Liquidity Replenishment Points (LRP), and NYSE Quotes. In addition to the format change, NYSE InfoTools will be enhanced to include a transaction LinkID. The transaction LinkID is a unique identifer assigned at the time of a trade to the tape print and to the execution reports to accurately reconstruct a transaction. Now with NYSE InfoTools, this information will be available in the real-time product and the eod replay files. To facilitate the migration of existing InfoTools customers to the new datafeed, both the old and the new version of new InfoTools will be run in parallel. The existing InfoTools will run over the production multicast IP addresses and the new InfoTools feed will run in real-time over the test multicast IP addresses. On April 12, 2007 the old InfoTools feed will be decommissioned and the New InfoTools feed will be running on the current production multicast IP addresses. Also coming soon in 2007, the NYSE will begin to offer the Real-Time NYSE Trades feed. The NYSE Trades feed provides the NYSE Last Sale for all NYSE-traded securities. Similar to the NYSE Quotes feed, the NYSE Trades feed offers customers the ability to take last sale information directly from the NYSE rather than through the Consolidated Quotation System (CTS). Aside from having a lower latency than CTS, each NYSE Trade message is an enhanced with additional timestamp information and a transaction identifier link. With these enhancements customers of NYSE InfoTools and NYSE Trades will be able to match their Retail Executions (NYSE ReTrac) and their Program Trading Executions (NYSE ProTrac) directly to the tape print with 100% accuracy and in real-time. The Customer Interface Specification for NYSE Trades is available on NYSEData.com. Example ReTrac Message (Retail Executions) Symbol: XYZ Volume: 100 LinkID: 1234 Time: 10:51:01.210 ProTrac Message (Program Trading Executions) Symbol: XYZ Volume: 300 LinkID:1234 Time: 10:51:01.210 NYSE Trades Message Symbol: XYZ Volume: 400 Price: 93.07 LinkID: 1234 Time: 10:51:01.210 How to subscribe to the InfoTools feed To get started as a production customer or redistributors of NYSE InfoTools, please signup online by choosing the products you are interested in receiving and/or redistributing and choosing “Add to Cart” here: http://www.nysedata.com/infotools
Testing Tuesday and Thursday night replay testing will continue to be available from 8pm to 9pm for the new formats. Testing for NYSE Trades is TBA.

Wed, 25 Oct 2006 13:46:40 EST

Real-Time NYSE Quotes Saturday Test on 10/28/2006 Real-Time NYSE Quotes Saturday Test on 10/28/2006 In preparation for the NYSE Quotes production launch on November 1, 2006, the NYSE will be offering a testing session this Saturday 10/28/2006 from 8am to 12pm to provide customers with an additional testing opportunity ahead of the production date.
What is the NYSE Quotes Datafeed The NYSE Quotes datafeed offers the NYSE Best Quotes (best bid/ask quotations) for all NYSE-traded securities as part of the NYSE OpenBook product offering. For no additional fees, customers of NYSE OpenBook can choose to receive the NYSE Best Quote directly in a faster, more streamlined datafeed from NYSE rather than through the Consolidated Quotation System (CQS). This means that firms will be provided a complete liquidity picture containing both depth-of-book and total market quote interest directly and more efficiently than ever before. Please note that this is a separate feed from the OpenBook feed and you will have to listen to a separate multicast group to receive the quotes feed.
How to subscribe to the feed -If you already are an NYSE Real-Time OpenBook customer, you are already provisioned to receive the NYSE Quotes datafeed and just need the specifications for IP address information, etc. -If you already are an NYSE OpenBook 5-seconds customer, you need to request access to the NYSE Quotes datafeed. We assume since you do not receive OpenBook real-time that you may not need/want the Real-time NYSE Quotes. If you would like to receive the feed please contact our team and we will provision you for the product. -If you do not currently receive OpenBook, you will need to become NYSE OpenBook customer in order to receive the NYSE Quotes datafeed.
Testing We will be offering testing every tuesday and thursday night from 7pm to 9pm as with all other NYSE datafeeds. This saturday 10/28 we will be offering a special pre-production testing from 8am to 12pm for the NYSE Quotes datafeed.

Product Updates: NYSE Liquidity Replenishment Points (LRP) now in production

Fri, 06 Oct 2006 10:51:55 EST

NYSE Liquidity Replenishment Points (LRP) now in production NYSE Liquidity Replenishment Points (LRP) are now in production as of October 6, 2006. The Oct. 6th Phase III full Hybrid Market trading will begin with two NYSE-listed securities, American Express Company (AXP) and Equity Office Property Trust (EOP), and specialist firms LaBranche & Co. and Kellogg Specialist Group, respectively. This will be followed by the roll-out of all NYSE-listed securities through early Dec. 2006. Certain changes to the rules governing the NYSE Hybrid Market are subject to Securities and Exchange Commission approval. NYSE Liquidity Replenishment Points are a new informational tool as part of the NYSE Hybrid Market Initiative. LRP's are pre-determined price points at which electronic trading briefly converts to auction market trading. They may be triggered by an electronic sweep or if electronic trading results in rapid price movement over a short period. Because the LRP converts the market solely to an auction market on a temporary basis, it moderates volatility by permitting new orders, as well as Crowd and specialist interest, to add liquidity. The NYSE LRP information will be included as part of the NYSE Alerts product. If you are currently receiving a NYSE Alerts Datafeed, please contact your SIAC Customer Relationship Manager at (866) USE SIAC to insure that LRP has been turned up in your NYSE Alerts Feed. You may also contact Jim Wieman at (212) 383-7106 or Irina Mekhanik at (212) 383-2236. If you are not yet subscribed to NYSE Alerts, please contact Mark Schaedel at (212) 656-5418 or Verona Walker at (212) 656-5955 or visit http://www.nysedata.com/nysedata/InformationProducts/Alerts/AlertsDF/tabid/217/Default.aspx. The monthly cost of receiving a NYSE Alerts Feed is $500 and there are no device charges associated with the product. Please consult http://www.nysedata.com/alerts for further information.

Daily/Monthly TAQ Package - Change in Monthly TAQ DVD Formatting

Mon, 06 Mar 2006 15:21:45 EST

Change in Monthly TAQ DVD Formatting Dear TAQ User: Beginning with the January 2006 TAQ DVDs, we will be splitting the quote files for some dates, based on the starting letter of the ticker symbol. Currently, for each trading day of the month, there is a separate directory. That directory contains two quote files and two trade files. The trade files will not change. Unfortunately, due to Windows limitations, the quote files are too large for the index on days where there are a very large number of quotes. On those days, we split the quote files into two pieces. The first files named Qyyyymma.BIN and Qyyyymma.IDX (i.e., Q200601a.BIN and Q200601a.IDX), will contain quotes for all tickers with letters starting between "A" and "M". Quote data for letters "N" through "Z" can be found in file names Qyyyymma_2.BIN and Qyyyymma_2.IDX. Dates that do not have too many quotes, will contain all ticker symbols in one file. Users who write their own programs will need to look in two files for their quotes for dates that are split. TAQ3.EXE will not recognize the second group of files. If you want to use TAQ3.EXE for symbols affected by this issue, you will need to copy the files to a hard drive and rename the two files with "_2" added to their names, to the Qyyyymma format (this means you will first need to rename the existing files something different). For example, if you want to use TAQ3.EXE to see quotes with tickers starting with the letters N to Z for January 3, 2006: (1) Rename Q200601A.BIN to Q200601A_1.BIN (2) Rename Q200601A.IDX to Q200601A.IDX (3) Rename Q200601A_2.BIN to Q200601A.BIN (4) Rename Q200601A_2.IDX to Q200601A.IDX You would have to rename the files back if you wanted to see quotes for letters A-M. Trade data are not affected by this issue. There is also a second DATE2.DAT file, DATE2_2.DAT that goes with these files. However, TAQ3.EXE does not require this file. You might need it if you write programs that read the files. The affected directories/dates for January 2006 are: CDA: Jan. 3, 2006 CDK: Jan. 18, 2006 CDM: Jan. 20, 2006 CDO: Jan. 24, 2006 CDP: Jan. 25, 2006 CDQ: Jan. 26, 2006 CDT: Jan. 31, 2006 We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause you.

NYSE has released it's Short Sale data to users of NYSE historical Trades & Quotes ("TAQ") at no additional fee.

Please note that Reg SHO data is available on a monthly basis for the previous month's trading and is available 4-6 weeks after the last trading day of the month. Daily TAQ FTP users will automatically be provided access to Reg SHO. Monthly TAQ DVD users will need to setup a FTP account for access to the data.
