Rule 606 – Order Routing Disclosure        Pipeline Trading Systems LLC

SEC- Required Report on Routing of Customer Orders

Pipeline Trading Systems LLC has prepared this report pursuant to a U.S. Securities and Exchange rule requiring all brokerage firms to make publicly available quarterly reports on their order routing practices. The report provides information on the routing of “non-directed orders” – any order that the customer has not specifically instructed to be routed to a particular venue for execution. For these non-directed orders, Pipeline Trading Systems LLC has selected the execution venue on behalf of its customers.

The report is divided into three sections: one for securities listed on the New York Stock Exchange and reported as a Network A eligible security; one for securities listed on the NASDAQ Stock Exchange and one for securities listed on the American Stock Exchange or Regional Exchanges and reported as a Network B eligible security. For each section, this report identifies the venues most often selected by Pipeline Trading Systems LLC, sets forth the percentage of various types of orders routed to venues, and discusses the material aspects of Pipeline Trading Systems LLC relationship with the venues.
