`market. MD Trader also had a one click recentering feature that allowed a trader to
`quickly bring the market into view and set a point of reference.
`
`MD Trader was radically different than the typeo of trading tools that were
`7.
`available at the time.
`litad never seen nuy of the features described above before I saw
`them in MD Trader. Because of these differences. MD Trader is a far superior trading
`tout. The main reason. for this ll that the improved visualization and. the improved order
`entry improve the ape-0d at which a trader can recognize opportunities and trade.
`In
`electronic trading, even fractions of a second are important. The improved visualization
`is especially helpful when a trader is looking at several products next to each other
`becaureihe trader can center the multiple windows to set a point of reference and
`immediately notice relative differences in the movements of those products at hurt a
`glance. MD Trader made it raster for traders to be active. participants in the market and it
`increased the number of orders being sent by traders.
`
`lam aware that after TT‘r reieatte of MD Trader. many companies have released
`8.
`similar products with the features discussed above. For example. i have used products
`made by .Pntaystema and RefcoPr-o Easytcneen that have these features. In 2001,
`Pntsystemt came to my office and allowed me a new screen they were rolling called
`"Dome.“ that looked identical to MD Trader. The representative from Pntayatems
`emphasized that the Dome product had the same functionality as TT's MD Trader and
`was cheaper.
`
`My office is located :1!in S. Wacker Drive. Chicago. Illinois. Since 2001. l have
`9.
`had 54 traders working for me.
`
`i declare under penalty of perjury that the forngoing is true and correct. Executed on
`August "81-. 2004.
