3.6 Volatility Control
Exchange will only allow a stock
price to fluctuate +/- 7% of previous close, which means any order
price is out of 7% of previous close range will be rejected.
In
order to control volatility, additional checks are in place. When the
exchange system detects that the potential execution price of a
specific stock is likely to fall out of a specified range (+/-3.5%) of
the last traded price, matching for that stock is postponed for two to
three minutes. Market participants are informed of this situation and
may modify their existing orders or enter new orders to cope with the
order imbalance of that security. However, this information is not
visible to our traders in any of the ETT application stack.
However,
volatility interruption is not applicable during the opening session
and the last 10 minutes of regular trading hours (i.e. 1:20 p.m. to
1:30 p.m.). Those stocks whose reference price for the opening call
auction is below 1 NT$ or whose matching is restricted to every 5 or 10
minutes are not subject to intra-day volatility interruption.
