Effective Sunday, December 15 (trade date Monday, December 16), BrokerTec on CME Globex will introduce the new Top of Stack (TOS) priority feature for U.S. Repo instruments. TOS prioritizes the passive managed order of the TOS owner based on the pre-defined TOS requirements. 

TOS provides priority to the last trader who has: 

1. A passive managed order (tag 6881-ManagedOrder=1) in the order book.

2. A Fill and Kill (FAK) order that is executed against all available quantity at the end of the workup.

3. Remaining FAK quantity.

The passive managed order that meets all the above criteria at the end of the workup will be prioritized to the TOS at the same price level.  

BrokerTec TOS functionality is designed to:

• Increase U.S. Repo trading velocity 

• Support deeper liquidity

BrokerTec TOS Scenarios

At the end of the workup, the passive managed order will be prioritized as follows:

• Remaining Managed FAK Quantity Is Less Than Passive Managed Order Quantity

• Remaining Managed FAK Quantity Is Greater Than Passive Managed Order Quantity

• Remaining Leave FAK Quantity Is Greater Than Passive Managed Order Quantity

Remaining Managed FAK Quantity Is Less Than Passive Managed Order Quantity

If the remaining managed FAK quantity is less than the passive managed order quantity, then move the passive managed order for the same quantity (i.e., the quantity that was in the order book) to the top of stack at the same price level.  

Example 1

Remaining Managed FAK Quantity Is Greater Than Passive Managed Order Quantity

If the remaining managed FAK quantity is greater than the passive managed order quantity, then move the passive managed order with the remaining FAK quantity to the top of stack at the same price level. 

Remaining Leave FAK Quantity Is Greater Than Passive Managed Order Quantity

If the remaining FAK quantity is from a leave order (tag 6881-ManagedOrder=0) , then move the passive managed order for the same quantity to the top of stack at its price level.
