Bottom 45% List

This list is provided for NYSE American Options Market Makers to help them determine the number of ATP’s they are required to have under the fee schedule. The bottom 45% of all option issues will be calculated quarterly, with a one month lag, based on the industry volume rank for all options traded on the Exchange. Any newly listed options will automatically become part of the bottom 45% until the next quarterly evaluation period, at which time they may or may not remain part of the bottom 45% depending upon their rank based on industry volume.
