If necessary, our clients can contact our brokers directly on their cell phones in the trading crowd or anywhere on the NYSE trading floor. Our 6 brokers carry handheld devices called “e-brokers” which act as an extension of our order management system and enable our brokers to manage orders, receive customer messages and send “Market Looks” directly to our customers’ desktops. The e-broker is equipped with a layering, reserve and a simple e-quote function as well as a discretionary e-quote (d-quote) which systemically replicates the verbal bid or offer of the floor broker by utilizing the maximum amount of its discretionary limit. In addition, three suites of algorithmic programs that have the advantage of parity are available to Mogavero, Lee brokers on their handheld computers.
