Limit Down

    0.04 sec.
Limit Down
The maximum amount by which the price of a commodity futures contract may decline in one trading day.

Notes:
Some markets close trading of contracts when the limit down is reached others allow trading to resume if the price moves away from the day's limit. If there is a major event affecting the market's sentiment towards a particular commodity, it may take several trading days before the contract price fully reflects this change: on each trading day, the trading limit will be reached before the market's equilibrium contract price is met.
