Autex investment & finance definition
An
automated trading system used by broker/dealers, exchanges, and others.
See Autex in Wall Street Words
An electronic network alerting broker-dealers to the interests of other broker-dealers in buying or selling large blocks of securities. For example, a broker may have an institutional customer interested in disposing of 100,000 shares of a stock. Rather than dumping such a large order on the exchange specialist, the broker could use the Autex system to determine whether other broker-dealers are interested in, or have customers interested in, acquiring that block of stock.
