When one-sided market in the same direction occurs and an iron ore futures contract touches the price limits on a trading day and the following two trading days (DN and DN+1 , DN+2 respectively), i.e., the price limits in the same direction are touched on three consecutive days, if DN+2 is the last trading day of the contract, then physical delivery is conducted; ifDN+3is the last trading day, then the trading on DN+3 continues at the price limit and level of margin of DN+2 . Except for the two circumstances above, on DN+2 the Exchange can decide and announce to take either of the two following measures according to market situation:Measure I: On DN+3 , the Exchange may take one or several of the following measures to avert market risks: increasing some or all members’ one-way or bilateral margins with the same or different proportions, suspending new positions of some or all members, adjusting price limits, restricting withdrawing capital, setting a deadline for liquidation, forced liquidation and so on.Measure II: The Exchange will automatically match the liquidation application, which is unmatched at the close of the market on Day N+2 at the price limit. The Exchange may also take other measures flexibly to well attend to the interests of the investors.
