CHICAGO, Aug. 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Reflecting its focus on openness and transparency, the Archipelago Exchange(SM) (ArcaEx®) has constructed a new website where investors, issuers, traders, and other industry watchers can access a broad, highly detailed range of ArcaEx-, market-wide- and client-specific data. ArcaEx is owned and operated by Archipelago Holdings, Inc. (PCX: AX). The culmination of data is primarily made available via the centerpiece of the new site: ArcaVision, an ArcaEx product that introduces a new level of stock exchange-provided real-time and historical information to meet the needs of this diverse audience. ArcaVision offers users a deep, clear, picture of market movements and trends. Access is available to investors today through a public website with more robust functionality available through a free subscription to ArcaVision. Additionally, ArcaEx clients, both traders and issuers, can access a private, password-protected site that lets them monitor their own trading activity and detail. ArcaVision enables subscribers to customize the data to suit their specific needs, while at the same time offering broad information to all investors.
"As an all-electronic exchange, we feel that ArcaEx has a significant technology edge that we've applied in developing our new website," said Steve Rubinow, chief technology officer of Archipelago. "We can now offer traders and issuers real-time information and analysis and can deliver it in a way that allows them to tailor and customize the data to meet their specific needs."
The information currently available through ArcaVision includes: * current and historical trading activity * risk management tools to monitor trading activity * customizable, comprehensive reports that allow users to view information on a weekly, monthly, quarterly, or annual basis * real-time market alerts on stock price or volume changes * ArcaEx and market wide market share for all and individual stocks * trading detail and quoting information, including speed, spread and inside quotes metrics * customizable analytical and query tools * online trading fee reporting * attributed trading data * view quotes and trades remotely through email
The new website also provides investors with more functionality. Investors of any size can now access more robust information about companies listed on the Pacific Exchange for trading on ArcaEx including the ability to see market data, company descriptions and search by sectors. Also available is more information about public companies, ETFs, closed end funds and structured products that trade on ArcaEx. Investors can search by company name, product name, symbol or industry sector to access volume and price information. Once the desired product has been located, investors simply click on the ticker symbol to launch ArcaBook -- which provides a list of orders available for execution on ArcaEx.
