Open outcry is a method of trading on a commodity exchange where traders shout out their buy or sell offers. When a trader shouts he wants to sell at a particular price and another trader shouts he wants to buy at that price, the two traders have made a contract that will be recorded.
The Toronto Stock Exchange (TSE) is the largest stock exchange in Canada, listing around 1,200 company stocks and offering 33 options. The exchange employs both open outcry and Computer Assisted Trading System (CATS) for its operations.
