Under the new system, if the market fluctuates by 4 percent within the first hour, trading would be suspended by 20 minutes.
Similarly, if the market fluctuates by 5 percent within two hours of trading, trading would be suspended by 40 minutes. Likewise, if the market fluctuates by 6 percent in any given time, the trading would be suspended for the whole day.
As per the current mechanism, NEPSE suspend trading for 15 minutes if the market fluctuates by 3 percent in first one hour, for 30 minutes if the market fluctuates by 4 percent in first two hours and for whole day if the market fluctuates by 5 percent in any given time.
