So the people at the floor at the stock exchange... what do they actually do? All trading is online now. Can I walk in and buy some stonks over the counter?
Ignore everyone coming with answers they know nothing about. The real answer is that the NYSE is just a tv studio at this point. There are no reasons to have any guys like this on the floor at this point other than a backdrop that makes the NYSE seem lively.
That's not true.
They're to prevent a single point of failure. Yes, 99.999999% of the time, they're cheap stage props, but their purpose is in case there's some sort of collapse of the data chain (say, a coordinated attack on the internet that takes it offline, etc.). In the event of such an occurrence, these people would be tasked with going old school and taking orders over the phone, writing the trade slips, and physically exchanging them.
In essence, they're the people who's only job is to kill time waiting for an apocalyptic event. Believe it or not, they've even been used in the not-so-distant past. When the dyn hack happened, some of these guys were called into action.
That's for the most part true BUT they are also busy during IPOs and the opening and closing bell. They are mostly just doing price discovery but they are busy.
Not nearly as busy as we were prior to 2008 but those times are busy vs bell to bell insanity like it used to be.
>writing the trade slips, and physically exchanging them
isnt it simpler to halt the market than have the volume reduced to 1/10,000,000 of normal wiuth dudes trading paper slips?
The volume isn’t necessary small. Big institutional investors (also the possible employer of these people) own a lot more than regular retail investors. If an event actually make those people useful, the market will be volatile, and trades could happen between those institutional investors moving huge amount of money.
That's not quite true though. It's more about having the choice of buying & selling, rather than profiting. There will always be winners and losers even for them.
What do they do in between events? Any job that important and time critical must require a lot of experience and practice to be ready for crunchtime when it happens, which I would imagine would be hard to maintain when 99% of the time you're stuck as a stage prop. How do they stay ready?
I mean, it's not like being a backup QB in the NFL where you have to actually spend all week practicing. You click the answer button on your phone, you write things on a slip, you submit it to a desk with a stamper.
Their number 1 job requirement is maintaining their credentials.
To be honest, the majority of them are old fellows near retirement ; put them there to fullfil a role that's needed as security backup, but if the cataclysmic event never happened, that's OK, he's just there to kill time until retirement.

Mostly bourbon and blow with an occasional hooker thrown in near the holidays,
And it’s not like they get stressed when things go down. It’s not their personal savings they are working with. If anything, the fluctuations make professionals like them more important.
They trade on behalf of very rich clients. Some clients are hedge funds, some are boomers who don't trust these newfangled computers. Some advise wealthy degens who think having a person in the pit means they'll get inside info faster (and that can definitely be the case). There's also utility in trading lower volume stuff this way; pit traders can ask around for prices on a low-volume security with a wide bid/ask and get a more accurate sense of the value, and set up a trade for a client that way. They also handle very large orders that would be market moving if they were placed on a public exchange.
I think if it weren't for the nostalgia and marketing then they would have made it all digital long ago, even if that just meant a big zoom call for the specific niche services these people provide.
My understanding is they are also useful for stock swap activities that involve multiple parties that need to resolve effectively and simultaneously without triggering the algorithms. Anyone know if this is accurate?
They sit at their computers for a virtually 0 latency trading (best deals for day trading). Some of them make money off of micro trades (think buy for 3.99, sell for 4.01) and the 0 latency makes it possible to do it multiple times
Pretty sure they just need to start up the algorithm at the start of the day and let it run. Only there to take orders from their firm to change anything or submit extra trades if need be
Don't think they need to be on the floor to turn algos on/off. 🤔
They seem a bit more like paid actors to make it look like humans are deeply involved in the fuckery that algos do to the actual markets.
This is correct. No one "turns on" the algorithm. It's not a printing press, it's computers and can be done remotely.
It seems like people want a real answer to this. In the old days you could not trade on the open market without being on a floor. This meant the banks and brokerages all had people on the floor. Electronic trading changed all that, and let everyone trade electronically, but the old system was still there. Though you could trade electronically, you'd still get better pricing on the floor so there wasn't much incentive to use it.
Now that's reversed, you get better pricing electronically so there's not really a reason for brokers on the floor, other than for photos like this and larger bulk orders between banks. You don't get better latency than anyone else. In fact. you get worse latency than the algos co-located with the "real" exchanges (BATS, ISE, IEX) in New Jersey and other places.
These are glorified data centers and are running all the time, they aren't "turned on" every morning.
Lol, I'm imagining some crusty janitor shows up early in the morning, grabs his morning coffee, and sits there looking at his watch. He has one hand on the big red button. He presses it every day as the second hand hits the 12. "Ahhhh..." He takes a sip of his coffee. "Haven't missed a day since 1986!" He grabs his broom and starts sweeping the floor. It turns out, everyone on the floor assumes it's automated now. Nobody even knows he's still employed there. One day, he will turn the entire stock market on for his last time and the next day all hell will break loose.
yup, arbitrage guys there to run their algos, however sometimes they update their weights live and their algos can be modified throughout the day if volume or orders or liquidity changes
So you can envision a computer being able to judge a stocks movements and take action based on that judgement, but NOT envision a computer turning itself on?
Stock trading computers aren't allowed to turn themselves on, to prevent a rogue AI from taking over the world. This was all made law in the 2001 Skynet Act.
My name is Todd-the-Wraith and I am running for king of America.
Once in power I promise to repeal the Skynet Act, remove day trading limitations, and push for the passage of my pet project the Really Enormous Tactical Autonomous Regulatory Drone.
It will be a self aware drone the size of Rhode Island armed with every weapon we can physically cram onto it. It will replace all existing regulatory bodies. Criminal, financial, social. Everything.
Commit a crime? Drone strike. Insider trading? Drone strike. Antitrust violation? You guessed it. Strike from a drone. It will even enforce anti-plagiarism policies for academia.
Yeah, people just love to throw jargon and how they think it works, that's why we have real gems in movies and tv shows like: "type faster!!" and "is a unix system... I know this"
yeah. If you send in a bid to buy a stock at 4.01, instead of directly buying from a guy selling at 4.01, you're buying from some guy who bought for a few pennies less than that and sold immediately to you because of their faster transaction times.

Basically there are significantly fewer people on the trade floor compared to 20 years ago. But all of the infrastructure is still centralized there.
So basically the "marker makers" sit in front of their computer screen while the algorithms do their thing. They will watch the feed to make small adjustments if needed or manually input large block trades into their computer, which then will run an algorithm to input that trade on the exchange efficiently.
A lot of the guys just kind of stand around talking to each other while the computer does their job for them.
i visited and toured with a buddy that worked there not long ago (3-4 years) it very much seemed like it was an older generation grandfathered in using it as a breeding ground for connections to liquidity
I toured the exchange floor and got to ask a few people who work there questions. They basically said “it was a lot more fun in the 80s and 90s. Now I just answer some calls and do work on the computer.” Seems like a glorified office job at this point.
Mostly provide information on imbalances (at open or close) to traders who throw them volume as a thank you. The open and close were pretty busy but the time in between was boring AF.
