Member firms can directly route an order to the Amex floor through the Common Message Switch (CMS). In addition, member firms can electronically access the Amex as a shared user of services bureaus (click for contact list) that have an electronic connection to CMS. The Amex requests that member firms test the standardized message format to ensure the proper transmission of four and five character symbols to accommodate Nasdaq trading. See the Technology Specification Sheet.
