Note 2: Pre-opening Session and Closing Auction Session

Order Types

Description

At-auction Order

An at-auction order is an order with no specified price. It enjoys a higher order matching priority than an at-auction limit order and will be matched in time priority at the final Indicative Equilibrium Price (IEP). Any outstanding at-auction orders after the end of the Pre-opening Session will be cancelled before the commencement of the Continuous Trading Session.

At-auction Limit Order

An at-auction limit order is an order with a specified price. It will be matched in price and time priority at the final IEP. No at-auction limit order will be matched at a price worse than the final IEP. If an IEP cannot be determined during the Closing Auction Session, the Reference Price will serve as the price for matching. Any outstanding at-auction limit orders at the end of the Pre-opening Session will be carried forward to the Continuous Trading Session and treated as limit orders provided that the specified price of that at-auction limit order does not deviate 9 times or more from the nominal price. Such orders will be put in the price queue of the input price.

 

 

Note 3: Continuous Trading Session

Order Types

Description

Limit Order

A limit order will allow matching only at the specified price. The sell order input price cannot be made at a price below the best bid price, if available. Whereas the buy order input price cannot be made at a price above the best ask price, if available. Any outstanding limit order will be put in the price queue of the input price.

Enhanced Limit Order

An enhanced limit order will allow matching of up to 10 price queues at a time provided that the traded price is not worse than the input price. The sell order input price cannot be made at a price of 10 spreads (or more) below the current bid price whereas the buy order input price cannot be made at a price of 10 spreads (or more) above the current ask price. Any outstanding enhanced limit order will be treated as a limit order and put in the price queue of the input price.
