Disorderly Market
A characterization of market conditions whereby there is excessive volatility at a time when there is no news. The volatility is often caused by order imbalances. In some markets, shorts trying to cover can cause disorderly conditions. If disorderly conditions arise, sometimes trading is halted.
Disorderly Market
A situation in which trading on a security is exceptionally volatile, especially when there is no apparent reason for it. A disorderly market may arise when short sellers are attempting to cover their positions, or when there is an order imbalance, among other reasons. Exchanges sometimes stop trade in a disorderly market to encourage smooth trading as much as possible.
