What are circuit breakers?
Circuit breakers are measures implemented by exchanges when they consider price movements to be overly volatile. They can take the form of a trading suspension or limiting buying and selling of securities within a specific price range.
Purpose:
Circuit breakers can be triggered to curb panic-selling ormanic-buying.
Applicable assets:
The circuit breaker system applies to both individual securities and market indexes. As a result, it applies to the options market as well -- if the stock market triggers a circuit breaker, the affected listed options markets will also halt trading.
How circuit breakers work in different markets
Jurisdictions and stock exchanges have their own rules for what circuit breakers entail, when do they kick in, and for how long they are in place.
