NYFIX Millennium ATS

The NYFIX Millennium Alternative Trading System (ATS) is a dark pool operated by NYFIX.

NYFIX Millennium is an automated execution venue designed to maximize execution quality and reduce overall transaction costs . A hybrid market system, Millennium enhances traditional auction markets by combining the electronic execution technology of an ECN with the liquidity of traditional primary markets.
