What’s all this then?

The Big Board? Blogging? Let us explain.
The NYSE Hybrid Market will be one of the biggest changes in equities trading since the Buttonwood Tree was a sapling.
More choice for customers in how they access our market. More automated tools for specialists and brokers to add value. More speed and flexibility, while maintaining our commitment to market quality. In the end, a market that combines the best aspects of our current auction system and automated trading.
A change of this magnitude requires a lot of communication. The Hybrid is being introduced in phases, and we want to make sure you --our customers -- know what’s coming and when. How to use it and how you can benefit from it. Everything from the top-line to the technical.
We’re working the conference circuit, visiting trading desks, e-mailing tutorials. In short, doing everything we can to help you understand everything you ever wanted to understand about all things Hybrid.
That’s where HybridTalk -- our first blog -- comes in. The daily, iterative quality of a web log lends itself to Hybrid, a project in which the benefits will build incrementally over the course of months. A blog is a fast way to communicate, and our environment is changing in real time.
What can you expect from HybridTalk? Prompt updates on new rules, product releases and other developments. Questions answered. A moderated forum for constructive discussion of issues. Latest news releases, articles and speeches. Mythinformation debunked, bones healed, souls saved. We welcome your comments and questions.
