Trading floor definition

A trading floor is the area of a business or an exchange where assets are bought and sold, most commonly associated with stock exchanges and futures exchanges. It is also often referred to as a trading pit.

Traditionally, a trading floor is a hectic, open space where traders communicate via ‘open outcry’: mainly shouting and hand signals. However, the rise of electronic trading has made this form of communication increasingly rare and quietened down many trading floors.
