Consolidated Tape NBBO
objective
Build and monitor consolidated tape and nbbo pipelines with latency-aware validation and market-structure controls.
workflow
- •define venue universe, quote protection rules, and timestamp precedence conventions.
- •normalize sip and direct feeds into a unified quote and trade schema.
- •reconstruct nbbo snapshots and track locked or crossed market states.
- •detect trade-through events and attribute them to latency, stale quotes, or routing errors.
- •release only when quote quality and reconciliation diagnostics remain within thresholds.
required diagnostics
- •nbbo spread stability and outlier frequency by symbol and session.
- •locked and crossed market rate with root-cause attribution.
- •sip-versus-direct latency differential and drift.
- •trade-through incidence versus protected quote state.
- •quote staleness and missing-venue coverage metrics.
risk controls
- •enforce hard thresholds on crossed-market and trade-through rates.
- •enforce stale-quote quarantine and fallback routing flags.
- •enforce feed-health escalation when venue coverage drops.
outputs
- •run
python scripts/consolidated_tape_nbbo_diagnostics.py input.csv --output diagnostics.jsonand keep the json artifact. - •write an implementation memo using
references/consolidated-tape-nbbo-playbook.mdwith assumptions, tests, limits, and rollout plan.
resources
- •use
scripts/consolidated_tape_nbbo_diagnostics.pyfor deterministic diagnostics. - •use
references/consolidated-tape-nbbo-playbook.mdfor the domain checklist and delivery structure.
