[Release No. 34-106321; File No. SR-CboeEDGA-2026-026]


Self-Regulatory Organizations; Cboe EDGA Exchange, Inc.; Notice 
of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of a Proposed Rule Change To 
Amend Exchange Rules 11.1, 11.6, 11.7, and 11.8 To Add a New Time-in-
Force Designation Known as ``Regular `til Post Market''

September 10, 2026.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 
(the ``Act''),\1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given 
that on August 28, 2026, Cboe EDGA Exchange, Inc. (the ``Exchange'' or 
``EDGA'') filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the 
``Commission'') the proposed rule change as described in Items I and II 
below, which Items have been prepared by the self-regulatory 
organization. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit 
comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons.

I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance 
of the Proposed Rule Change

    Cboe EDGA Exchange, Inc. (``EDGA'' or the ``Exchange'') proposes to 
amend Exchange Rules 11.1, 11.6, 11.7, and 11.8 to add a new Time-in-
Force (``TIF'') designation known as ``Regular `til Post Market'' 
(``RTP''). The Exchange also proposes to amend Rule 11.8(c) and Rule 
11.8(d) to include references to ``Regular Hours Only'' (``RHO'') where 
it has been erroneously excluded from certain rule text. The Exchange 
has designated the proposed rule change as noncontroversial and 
provided the Commission with the notice required by Rule 19b-
4(f)(6)(iii) under the Act.\3\ The text of the proposed rule change is 
provided in Exhibit 5.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii).

II. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and 
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

    In its filing with the Commission, the Exchange included statements 
concerning the purpose of and basis for the proposed rule change and 
discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule change. The 
text of these statements may be examined at the places specified in 
Item IV below. The Exchange has prepared summaries, set forth in 
sections A, B, and C below, of the most significant aspects of such 
statements.

A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and 
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    The Exchange proposes to amend Rule 11.6(q) (``Time-in-Force'') to 
add a new TIF designation known as ``Regular `til Post Market'' or 
``RTP.'' As proposed, an RTP order would be a limit order designated 
for execution during both Regular Trading Hours \4\ and the Post-
Closing Session,\5\ with any unexecuted portion expiring at the end of 
the Post-Closing Session. In connection with the introduction of the 
RTP TIF, the Exchange also proposes conforming amendments to Rules 
11.1, 11.7, and 11.8 to reflect the availability of the RTP TIF across 
the Exchange's order handling, order type, and opening process rules.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ See Exchange Rule 1.5(y). The term ``Regular Trading Hours'' 
means the time between 9:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time.
    \5\ See Exchange Rule 1.5(r). The ``Post-Closing Session'' on 
EDGA means the time between 4:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Currently, Rule 11.6(q) provides Users \6\ with the following TIF 
options for order entry.\7\ An ``Immediate-or-Cancel'' (``IOC'') order 
\8\ is an instruction the User may attach to an order stating the order 
is to be executed in whole or in part as soon as such order is 
received. Any unexecuted portion of an IOC order is cancelled. A 
``Day'' order \9\ is an instruction the User may attach to an order 
stating that an order to buy or sell which, if not executed, expires at 
the end of Regular Trading Hours. A ``Fill-or-Kill'' (``FOK'') order 
\10\ is an instruction the User may attach to an order stating that the 
order is to be executed in its entirety as soon as it is received and, 
if not so executed, cancelled. A ``Good `til Day'' (``GTD'') order \11\ 
is an instruction the User may attach to an order specifying the time 
of day at which the order expires. Any unexecuted portion of an order 
with a TIF instruction of GTD will be cancelled at the expiration of 
the User's specified time, which can be no later than the close of the 
Post-Closing Session. A ``Good `til Extended Day'' (``GTX'') order \12\ 
is an instruction the User may attach to an order to buy or sell which, 
if not executed, will be cancelled by the close of the Post-Closing 
Session. A ``Regular Hours Only'' (``RHO'') order \13\ is an 
instruction a User may attach to an order designating it for execution 
only during Regular Trading Hours, which includes the Opening Process 
and Re-Opening Process \14\ following a halt suspension or pause. A 
``Pre-Opening Session Plus'' (``PRE'') order \15\ is a limit order 
designated for execution during the Pre-Opening Session \16\ and 
Regular Trading Hours. Any portion not executed expires at the end of 
Regular Trading Hours. A ``Pre-Opening Session `til Extended Day'' 
(``PTX'') order \17\ is a limit order designated for execution during 
the Pre-Opening Session, Regular Trading Hours, and the Post-Closing 
Session. Any portion not executed expires at the end of the Post-
Closing Session. A ``Pre-Opening Session `til Day'' (``PTD'') order 
\18\ is a limit order designated for execution during the Pre-Opening 
Session, Regular Trading Hours, and the Post-Closing Session. Any 
portion not executed will be cancelled at the expiration time assigned 
to the order, which can be no later than the close of the Post-Closing 
Session. While EDGA currently offers a wide range of TIF designations, 
the Exchange does not presently offer a TIF that specifically combines 
Regular Trading Hours with the Post-Closing Session in a single, 
dedicated designation.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See Exchange Rule 1.5(ee). ``User'' is defined as ``any 
Member or Sponsored Participant who is authorized to obtain access 
to the System pursuant to Rule 11.3.'' The ``System'' is ``the 
electronic communications and trading facility designated by the 
Board through which securities orders of Users are consolidated for 
ranking, execution and, when applicable, routing away.'' See 
Exchange Rule 1.5(cc). The term ``Member'' means any registered 
broker or dealer that has been admitted to membership in the 
Exchange. See Exchange Rule 1.5(n).
    \7\ See Exchange Rule 11.6(q).
    \8\ See Exchange Rule 11.6(q)(1).
    \9\ See Exchange Rule 11.6(q)(2).
    \10\ See Exchange Rule 11.6(q)(3).
    \11\ See Exchange Rule 11.6(q)(4).
    \12\ See Exchange Rule 11.6(q)(5).
    \13\ See Exchange Rule 11.6(q)(6).
    \14\ See Exchange Rule 11.7.
    \15\ See Exchange Rule 11.6(q)(7).
    \16\ See Exchange Rule 1.5(s). The term ``Pre-Opening Session'' 
shall mean the time between 8:00 a.m. and 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time.
    \17\ See Exchange Rule 11.6(q)(8).
    \18\ See Exchange Rule 11.6(q)(9).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Against this backdrop, the Exchange proposes to introduce the RTP 
TIF as a new, dedicated TIF option on EDGA. As proposed, the RTP TIF 
would permit a User to submit a single limit order that is eligible for 
execution during Regular Trading Hours and that, if not fully executed 
during Regular Trading Hours, would remain active and eligible for 
execution during the Post-Closing Session. Any portion of an RTP order 
not executed by the end of the Post-Closing Session would expire. An 
RTP order may be modified or cancelled in accordance with Rule 11.10(e) 
and order priority will be determined pursuant to Rule 11.9(a), just as 
is the case for RHO orders currently. The Exchange believes that adding 
the RTP TIF to its suite of available TIF designations in Rule 11.6(q) 
would provide Users with a convenient, single-instruction mechanism to 
participate in both Regular Trading Hours and the Post-Closing Session 
without the need to submit separate orders for each session.
    In connection with the introduction of the RTP TIF, the Exchange 
also proposes to amend Rule 11.1 (``Hours of Trading and Trading 
Days'') to add RTP to the list of TIF designations that are subject to 
restrictions on order entry prior to 7:00 a.m. Eastern Time.\19\ Rule 
11.1(a) currently provides that orders may be entered into the System 
from 6:00 a.m. until 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time, and that the Exchange will 
not accept, prior to 7:00 a.m. Eastern Time, among other orders, Market 
Orders other than those with a Time-in-Force of Regular Hours Only or a 
Stop Price, and orders with a Minimum Execution Quantity instruction 
that also include a Time-in-Force of Regular Hours Only.\20\ Because an 
RTP order, like an RHO order, is designed for execution during Regular 
Trading Hours (and, in the case of RTP, extending into the Post-Closing 
Session), the Exchange proposes to add RTP alongside RHO in each of 
these provisions so that Market Orders with a Time-in-Force of RTP, and 
orders with a Minimum Execution Quantity instruction that also include 
a Time-in-Force of RTP, will not be accepted prior to 7:00 a.m. Eastern 
Time. This proposed change is consistent with the treatment of RHO 
orders and ensures

[[Page 58484]]

that orders combining these conditions with the RTP TIF are not entered 
into the System before the applicable trading sessions for such orders 
have commenced.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \19\ See Exchange Rule 11.1(a).
    \20\ See Exchange Rule 11.1(a). Rule 11.1(a) provides that the 
Exchange will not accept, prior to 7:00 a.m. Eastern Time, among 
other orders, Market Orders other than those with a Time-in-Force of 
Regular Hours Only or a Stop Price, and orders with a Minimum 
Execution Quantity instruction that also include a Time-in-Force of 
Regular Hours Only.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange also proposes amendments to Rule 11.7 (``Opening 
Process'') to add RTP alongside RHO throughout that rule's provisions 
governing eligibility for and participation in the Opening Process and 
the Re-Opening Process for securities.\21\ Specifically, the Exchange 
proposes to amend Rule 11.7(a) to provide that, prior to the beginning 
of the Regular Session, Users who wish to participate in the Opening 
Process may enter orders to buy or sell that include a TIF instruction 
of either RHO or RTP. All existing restrictions applicable to RHO 
orders in Rules 11.7(a)(1) and 11.7(a)(2) would apply equally to RTP 
orders, including the restrictions prohibiting EDGA Post Only Orders, 
ISOs, and orders with a Minimum Execution Quantity instruction from 
participating in the Opening Process. The Exchange further proposes to 
amend Rule 11.7(e)(1)(A) to provide that, consistent with non-RHO 
orders, non-RTP orders will be eligible for participation in the Re-
Opening Process following a Regulatory Halt, subject to the same 
exceptions and limitations that currently apply to non-RHO orders.\22\ 
These amendments ensure that the RTP TIF is integrated consistently 
into the Exchange's opening and re-opening processes for securities, on 
the same terms applicable to RHO orders.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \21\ See Exchange Rule 11.7(a). Currently, only orders that 
include a TIF instruction of RHO are eligible to participate in the 
Opening Process prior to the beginning of the Regular Session.
    \22\ See Exchange Rule 11.7(e)(1)(A). Currently, non-RHO orders 
are eligible for participation in the Re-Opening Process, but IOC, 
FOK, EDGA Post Only Orders, and Minimum Execution Quantity Orders 
will be cancelled or rejected, as applicable, and any ISO that is 
not IOC or FOK will be converted into a non-ISO and be queued for 
participation in the Re-Opening Process.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange also proposes conforming amendments to Rule 11.8 
(``Order Types'') to add RTP to the list of permissible TIF 
instructions for the order types that will support the new 
designation.\23\ Specifically, the Exchange proposes to add RTP as an 
available TIF instruction for Limit Orders (Rule 11.8(b)), Intermarket 
Sweep Orders (Rule 11.8(c)), MidPoint Peg Orders (Rule 11.8(d)), 
MidPoint Discretionary Orders (Rule 11.8(e)), Market Maker Peg Orders 
(Rule 11.8(f)), and Supplemental Peg Orders (Rule 11.8(g)), in each 
case alongside the existing RHO instruction and subject to the same 
handling, display, and re-pricing provisions applicable to those order 
types. These conforming amendments ensure that the RTP TIF is available 
across the Exchange's order types in a manner consistent with the 
treatment of the existing RHO TIF. The Exchange also proposes to amend 
Rule 11.8(c) and Rule 11.8(d) to include RHO where it has been 
erroneously excluded from certain rule text. Specifically, the Exchange 
proposes to add RHO as a permissible TIF to Rule 11.8(c)(1), Rule 
11.8(c)(3), Rule 11.8(c)(5), and Rule 11.8(c)(6) and Rule 11.8(d)(1). 
The Exchange notes that Rule 11.8(c)(1) and Rule 11.8(d)(1) each 
includes RHO as a permissible TIF in its opening sentence, but the 
remainder of Rule 11.8(c) and Rule 11.8(d) does not include RHO even 
though other similar TIFs (e.g., GTD and GTX, which are both TIFs 
active during Regular Trading Hours) are permissible. Including RHO in 
Rules 11.8(c)(1), (3), (5), and (6) and Rule 11.8(d)(1) where other 
TIFs that apply during Regular Trading Hours are similarly included 
ensures that ISOs \24\ and MidPoint Peg Orders containing a TIF of RHO 
are treated similarly to other TIFs active during Regular Trading 
Hours.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \23\ See Exchange Rule 11.8.
    \24\ An ``ISO'' refers to an Intermarket Sweep Order as defined 
in Regulation NMS Rule 600(a)(47).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Comparison to Other Exchange Times-in-Force
    The Exchange has also considered how other national securities 
exchanges handle TIF requirements for order entry when it comes to 
spanning the regular and after-hours trading sessions. NYSE Arca's 
trading rules provide for three trading sessions: the Early Trading 
Session, the Core Trading Session, and the Late Trading Session.\25\ 
Under NYSE Arca's framework, orders entered into the NYSE Arca 
Marketplace must include a designation for which trading session(s) the 
order will remain in effect.\26\ An order is eligible to participate in 
the designated trading session(s) only and may remain in effect for one 
or more consecutive trading sessions on a particular day.\27\ Orders 
may be accepted by the exchange that are not eligible to trade until a 
later trading session begins.\28\ Thus, NYSE Arca offers comparable 
functionality as proposed by the Exchange as it permits orders to be 
entered during its Early Trading Session that are eligible to trade in 
both the Core Trading Session and the Late Trading Session, which is 
analogous to the Exchange's proposed RTP TIF.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \25\ See NYSE Arca Rule 7.34-E(a). NYSE Arca's Early Trading 
Session runs from 4:00 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time, its Core 
Trading Session runs from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time, and 
its Late Trading Session runs from the conclusion of the Core 
Trading Session until 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time. Under Rule 7.34-E, all 
order types and modifiers defined in Rule 7.31-E that are designated 
for the Early Trading Session are eligible to participate in the 
Early Trading Session, subject to certain order-type restrictions.
    \26\ See NYSE Arca Rule 7.34-E(b)(1).
    \27\ Id.
    \28\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Similarly, Nasdaq's Time-in-Force framework, set forth in Nasdaq 
Equity Rule 4703(a), provides that the TIF assigned to an order 
designates the period of time that the Nasdaq Market Center will hold 
the order for potential execution, with Participants specifying both a 
time at which the order becomes active and a time at which the order 
ceases to be active.\29\ Nasdaq does refer to certain periods of times 
with explicit TIFs throughout its rulebook, including ``IOC,'' ``System 
Hours Day,'' ``System Hours Expire Time,'' and ``Market Hours Day,'' 
however these terms are derived from the specific start and end times 
appended to orders, similar to the NYSE Arca functionality described 
supra. As such, Nasdaq offers comparable functionality as proposed by 
the Exchange but does so through the ability of orders to be entered 
with specific start and end times as opposed to a specific TIF as 
proposed by the Exchange.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \29\ See Nasdaq Equity Rule 4703(a). Nasdaq provides a list of 
acceptable times to activate and deactivate orders, which includes 
Regular Market Hours (similar to the Exchange's RHO TIF) and the end 
of System Hours (pursuant to Nasdaq Equity 1, Section 1(a)(9), the 
end of System Hours is defined as 8:00 p.m. ET, which is identical 
to the end time of the Exchange's Post-Closing Session).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Implementation
    The Exchange plans to implement the proposed rule change during the 
early fourth quarter of 2026 and will announce the implementation date 
via Trade Desk Notice.
2. Statutory Basis
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is consistent 
with Section 6(b) of the Act,\30\ in general, and furthers the 
objectives of Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,\31\ in particular, in that it 
is designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, 
to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to foster 
cooperation and coordination with persons engaged in regulating, 
clearing, settling, processing information with respect to, and 
facilitating transactions in securities, to remove impediments to and 
perfect the mechanism of a free and open market and a national market 
system, and, in

[[Page 58485]]

general, to protect investors and the public interest.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \30\ 15 U.S.C. 78f.
    \31\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Exchange believes the proposed rule change promotes just and 
equitable principles of trade, removes impediments to and perfects the 
mechanism of a free and open market and national market system, and 
protects investors and the public interest by providing Users with a 
convenient, streamlined mechanism to participate in both Regular 
Trading Hours and the Post-Closing Session through the submission of a 
single order. Currently, Users seeking to maintain trading interest 
across both Regular Trading Hours and the Post-Closing Session must 
either submit separate orders for each session or utilize broader TIF 
designations that may include trading sessions not desired by the User. 
The introduction of the RTP TIF in Rule 11.6 directly addresses this 
gap by offering a dedicated, purpose-built TIF designation that permits 
a User to submit a single order eligible for execution during Regular 
Trading Hours and, if not fully executed, to have such order remain 
active through the end of the Post-Closing Session.
    This streamlined approach promotes just and equitable principles of 
trade by enabling Users to efficiently express their trading interest 
across the regular and post-close sessions in a single instruction, 
thereby reducing operational complexity, administrative burden, and the 
potential for order entry errors that may arise from the need to manage 
multiple orders across trading sessions.
    Furthermore, the conforming amendments to Rules 11.1, 11.7, and 
11.8 ensure that the RTP TIF is fully integrated into the Exchange's 
existing order handling, order type, and opening process framework in a 
manner that is consistent with the treatment of the existing limit RHO 
TIF. By aligning the treatment of RTP orders with RHO limit orders for 
purposes of participation in the Opening Process and Re-Opening 
Process, the Exchange ensures that RTP orders are processed in a manner 
that is transparent, predictable, and fair to all Users. The consistent 
treatment of RTP orders across the Exchange's rules promotes just and 
equitable principles of trade by providing Users with certainty as to 
how their RTP orders will be handled throughout the trading day. 
Additionally, the proposed amendments to Rules 11.8(c) and Rule 11.8(d) 
to include RHO as a permissible TIF alongside other TIFs that are 
active during Regular Trading Hours similarly promotes just and 
equitable principles of trade by providing Users with certainty as to 
how their orders designated as ISO and MidPoint Peg orders will be 
handled throughout the trading day.
    Moreover, the proposed rule change perfects the mechanism of a free 
and open market and supports a national market system by offering Users 
functionality that is comparable to that available on other national 
securities exchanges. As discussed above, NYSE Arca permits orders to 
be entered during its Early Trading Session that are eligible to trade 
in both the Core Trading Session and the Late Trading Session, 
providing comparable functionality to the Exchange's proposed RTP TIF. 
Similarly, Nasdaq's Time-in-Force framework permits Participants to 
specify both a time at which an order becomes active and a time at 
which the order ceases to be active, enabling comparable order entry 
flexibility. The Exchange's adoption of the RTP TIF ensures that Users 
have access to trading functionality on EDGA that is consistent with 
industry practice and supports the efficient operation of the national 
market system by enabling Users to express their trading interest in a 
manner that is compatible with the trading mechanisms employed by other 
market centers.
    Finally, the Exchange believes that the proposed rule change is not 
designed to permit unfair discrimination. The RTP TIF would be 
available to all Users on an equal and non-discriminatory basis. The 
use of the RTP TIF is entirely optional, and no User is required to 
utilize the RTP TIF in connection with order submission to the 
Exchange. Users who do not wish to use the RTP TIF may continue to 
submit orders using any of the other TIF designations currently offered 
by the Exchange, including the Day, RHO, and PTX TIF designations.

B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition

    The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will 
impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate 
in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The RTP TIF is an optional 
designation offered by the Exchange, and Users are free to decide 
whether to use the RTP TIF in connection with order submission to the 
Exchange. The Exchange believes that the proposed RTP TIF and 
associated conforming amendments do not impose any intramarket burden 
on competition as they represent an enhancement to existing 
functionality that would be available to all Users on an equal and non-
discriminatory basis. The proposed changes do not alter the way in 
which orders are prioritized, executed, or otherwise processed on the 
Exchange; they simply provide Users with an additional TIF option and 
integrate that option consistently into existing rules.
    The Exchange believes that the proposed rule change does not impose 
any undue burden on intermarket competition. On the contrary, the 
proposed changes are being made to provide Users with enhanced order 
entry flexibility that may improve their ability to interact across 
Regular Trading Hours and the Post-Closing Session that is comparable 
to order entry flexibility on competitor exchanges, therefore promoting 
competition between venues.

C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed 
Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others

    The Exchange has not solicited, and does not intend to solicit, 
comments on this proposed rule change. The Exchange has not received 
any unsolicited written comments from Members or other interested 
parties.

III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for 
Commission Action

    Because the foregoing proposed rule change does not: (i) 
significantly affect the protection of investors or the public 
interest; (ii) impose any significant burden on competition; and (iii) 
become operative for 30 days after the date on which it was filed, or 
such shorter time as the Commission may designate, it has become 
effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)(iii) of the Act \32\ and 
subparagraph (f)(6) of Rule 19b-4 thereunder.\33\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \32\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A)(iii).
    \33\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6). In addition, Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii) 
requires a self-regulatory organization to give the Commission 
written notice of its intent to file the proposed rule change, along 
with a brief description and text of the proposed rule change, at 
least five business days prior to the date of filing of the proposed 
rule change, or such shorter time as designated by the Commission. 
The Exchange has satisfied this requirement.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b-4(f)(6) \34\ normally 
does not become operative prior to 30 days after the date of the 
filing. However, pursuant to Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii),\35\ the Commission 
may designate a shorter time if such action is consistent with the 
protection of investors and the public interest. The Exchange has asked 
the Commission to waive the 30-day operative delay so that the proposed 
rule change may become operative immediately upon filing. The Exchange 
states that it is seeking to introduce the

[[Page 58486]]

proposed functionality early in the fourth quarter of 2026 and waiver 
of the operative delay will permit the proposed rule changes to become 
effective immediately. The Exchange further states that waiver of the 
operative delay will allow the Exchange to offer a TIF that is 
competitive with TIF offerings of Nasdaq \36\ and NYSE Arca \37\, each 
of which permits Users to submit orders during the respective Pre-
Opening Session that become active during Regular Trading Hours and 
remain active through the end of the Post-Closing Session. The 
Commission believes that waiving the 30-day operative delay is 
consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest as 
the proposal does not raise any new or novel issues. Therefore, the 
Commission hereby waives the 30-day operative delay and designates the 
proposed rule change to be operative upon filing.\38\
