TORONTO – October 31, 2008
Omega ATS is pleased to announce that TSX Venture-listed securities will be available for trading beginning November 17, 2008. * To facilitate the addition, testing for TSX V securities will be available in the Omega ATS Test environment beginning Wednesday, November 5th. We look forward to providing market participants with alternative access for TSX-V liquidity.
On a related subject, the Omega ATS Test environment hours of availability will be expanded to 01:30 – 23:00 EST seven days a week. There may be interruptions on weekends when Omega is updating the system. Sequence numbers will reset when the environment comes up at 01:30. Market open/close state messages will occur as currently scheduled (7:30 and 18:00). Support for test system will continue to be available during normal business hours (8:30 – 17:00 EST). Support outside normal hours can be arranged by appointment. Comments/suggestions about the new features would be greatly appreciated.
Best Regards
The Omega Team
(* as with TSX listed securities, Omega ATS will not trade warrants, rights, debentures, notes or U.S. $ denominated Venture-listed securities)
