With the implementation of Automatic Book Priority (ABP), which automatically matches and executes orders with the Book, CBOE now executes 39% of customer orders electronically- with absolutely no human intervention. More than 94% of customer orders at CBOE are routed electronically. CBOE continues to lead the way in making options trading more cost efficient through technology," said CBOE Chairman and CEO William J. Brodsky.
