These rules require DCMs to adopt measures to prevent, detect, and mitigate market disruptions or anomalies that might occur due to electronic trading. The regulations emphasize flexibility by allowing each DCM to tailor their risk controls based on their specific market needs. This approach aims to ensure stable and fair trading environments on electronic platforms.
