MIT201 – GUIDE TO THE TRADING SYSTEM

1.0 Introduction
London Stock Exchange is committed to continually enhancing its markets. UK cash equity markets migrated to 
MillenniumIT’s multi-asset class, ultra-low latency platform, Millennium Exchange, on 14 February 2011.
Since that time we have continued to improve performance and launched new services such as Sponsored 
Access, providing non-members a direct technical connection to our order books under the trading codes of a 
sponsoring member firm and the Closing Price Crossing Session.
There have also been enhancements to the Request for Quote functionality which is now available for equities, 
exchange traded products (ETPs) and deposit receipts, traded on the SETS, ETPs – Euroclear Bank Settlement 
and International Order Book (IOB) trading services. This continues to be supported by pre-trade risk controls that 
are available for single connection trading customers. These have been specifically designed to help General 
Clearing Members facilitate smaller order book users, who in the past were unable to obtain cost effective access.
1.1 Purpose
The purpose of this document is to provide participants with:
A business overview of the Millennium Exchange trading system and the TRADEcho off-book trade reporting and 
SI quoting service
A high level, technical overview of the following areas:
• Customer facing trading interfaces to Millennium Exchange trading system (both FIX 5.0 and Native)
• Customer connectivity to TRADEcho
• Disaster recovery
Generic operation of the Trading Services provided by Millennium Exchange:
The detailed operation of each Trading Service is governed by the specific configuration of Millennium Exchange 
TRADEcho, which is summarised in the Millennium Exchange & TRADEcho Business Parameters Document 
(Business Parameters document). Both this document and the Business Parameters document should be read in
