Pyth Network Begins Distributing NYSE BQT Market Data
Pyth Network has started distributing NYSE Best Quote and Trades (NYSE BQT), the New York Stock Exchange’s real-time market data product. The feed is designed to provide detailed information on trading activity in U.S. stocks and exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
NYSE BQT delivers real-time best bid and ask prices, giving market participants visibility into the highest available buying price and the lowest available selling price. It also includes the order volumes available at those prices, as well as price and volume data for completed trades.
NYSE BQT Combines Data From Five Markets
The NYSE BQT feed consolidates information from NYSE, NYSE American, NYSE Arca, NYSE National, and NYSE Texas into a single data stream. Its coverage also extends to securities listed on other exchanges when those securities are traded on the five markets included in the feed.
In addition to quote and trade information, NYSE BQT includes the New York Stock Exchange’s official closing prices and consolidated trading volume. The feed also carries market-status notifications, including alerts about trading halts, trading resumptions, and restrictions on short selling.
What NYSE BQT Adds to Real-Time Market Information
By distributing NYSE BQT, Pyth Network is making a consolidated stream of NYSE market information available through its network. The data covers both current quoting activity and completed transactions, while the associated status messages provide information about changes that may affect trading conditions.
The combination of data from multiple NYSE-operated venues gives the feed broad coverage across stocks and ETFs traded through those markets. Its inclusion of closing prices, total trading volume, and operational notifications extends the data beyond live quotes and individual trade updates.
Why This Matters
Real-time market data is central to understanding prices, liquidity, trading activity, and changes in market conditions. NYSE BQT brings quotes and trades from five NYSE markets together with official closing information and market-status alerts, creating a more comprehensive view of activity across those venues.
The distribution of this feed through Pyth Network marks the beginning of access to NYSE BQT through the network. The source announcement does not provide additional details about specific users, applications, or future distribution plans.
