Market Data Fees

Definitions

  • “Real-Time” means BlockwayFi market data that is accessed, used, or distributed less than fifteen (15) milliseconds after it was made available by the Exchange. BlockwayFi provides only Real-Time BlockwayFi market data to Data Subscribers. A Data Subscriber may redistribute Real-Time BlockwayFi market data that it receives from the Exchange on a Real-Time basis to a natural person or entity. Receipt of BlockwayFi market data on a Real-Time basis by an affiliate of a Data Subscriber is not subject to additional Fees beyond those paid by such Data Subscriber.1
  • “Delayed” means BlockwayFi market data that is accessed, used, or distributed at least fifteen (15) milliseconds after it was made available by the Exchange. A Data Subscriber may redistribute Real-Time BlockwayFi market data that it receives from the Exchange on a Delayed basis to a natural person or entity. In addition, a recipient of Delayed BlockwayFi market data may further redistribute such Delayed BlockwayFi market data to a natural person or entity.
  • “Data Subscriber” means any natural person or entity that receives Real-Time BlockwayFi market data either directly from the Exchange or from another non-affiliated Data Subscriber. A Data Subscriber must enter into a Data Subscriber Agreement with BlockwayFi in order to receive Real-Time BlockwayFi market data. A natural person or entity that receives Real-Time BlockwayFi market data from an affiliated Data Subscriber is subject to the Data Subscriber Agreement of such affiliated Data Subscriber.
Fee Schedule

Transaction Fees

  • All fees identify cost or rebate per share executed unless otherwise specified.  Rebates are indicated by parentheses ().
  • Footnotes provide further explanatory text or indicate variable rate changes, provided the conditions in the footnote are met.
  • The rates listed in the Base Rates table apply unless a User’s transaction is assigned a Fee Code other than a Base Fee Code (an "Additional Fee Code"). If a User’s transaction is assigned an Additional Fee Code, the rates listed in the Fee Code Combinations and Associated Fees table will apply.
  • The Exchange passes-through in full any fees charged by/rebates received from away venues ("Cost") to the Member and adds the BlockwayFi fee (i.e., a $0.0001 charge per share).

Definitions

  • "Fee Code" is identified on each execution report message from the Exchange in the Trade Liquidity Indicator field.
  • "MPID" means a market participant identifier.
  • "TDV" means the total dollar value of the execution calculated as the execution price multiplied by the number of shares executed in the transaction.
