underlying indices and allow investors
and traders to roll open positions from
a lower strike to a higher strike in
conjunction with the price movements
of the underlying ETFs.’’ 12
Cboe acknowledges that allowing
series of QQQ and IWM options to be
listed in $1 intervals between strike
prices over $200 likely would increase
the total number of options series
available on the Exchange, but
represents that: (1) It and the Options
Price Reporting Authority (‘‘OPRA’’)
have the necessary systems capacity to
handle any potential additional traffic
associated with this proposed rule
change; (2) Trading Permit Holders
would not have a capacity issue; and (3)
the proposed expansion would not
cause fragmentation of liquidity but, by
providing more trading opportunities to
market participants, instead would
increase both available liquidity as well
as price efficiency.13
In approving this proposal, the
Commission notes that the Exchange
has represented that it and OPRA have
the necessary systems capacity to
handle the potential additional traffic
associated with this proposed rule
change.17 The Exchange further stated
that it believes its members will not
have a capacity issue as a result of the
proposal and that it does not believe
this expansion will cause fragmentation
of liquidity.18
III. Conclusion
It is therefore ordered, pursuant to
Section 19(b)(2) of the Act 19 that the
proposed rule change (SR–CBOE–2019–
015) be, and hereby is, approved.
For the Commission, by the Division of
Trading and Markets, pursuant to delegated
authority.20

Deputy Secretary.

II. Discussion and Commission
Findings
BILLING CODE 8011–01–P
After careful review, the Commission
finds that the proposed rule change is
consistent with the requirements of the
Act and the rules and regulations
thereunder applicable to a national
securities exchange.14 In particular, the
Commission finds that the proposed
rule change is consistent with Section
6(b)(5) of the Act,15 which requires,
among other things, that the rules of a
national securities exchange be
designed to promote just and equitable
principles of trade, to prevent
fraudulent and manipulative acts, to
remove impediments to and perfect the
mechanism of a free and open market
and a national market system, and, in
general, to protect investors and the
public interest. The Commission
believes that the proposed change
accommodates the current levels of the
respective indexes tracked by QQQ and
IWM. In particular, permitting $1 strikes
above $200 in such ETFs may provide
the investing public and other market
participants with more flexibility in
their investment and hedging decisions
in QQQ and IWM options and is
consistent with past precedent for other
similar ETFs that track broad-based
indexes.16
