Daily Settlement Price

The daily settlement price is calculated as follows at the end of the normal session and rounded to the nearest price tick:

a) The weighted average price of all the trades executed within the last 10 minutes of the normal session,

b) If less than 10 trades were realized in the last 10 minutes of the normal session, the weighted average price of the last 10 trades executed during the normal session,

c) If less than 10 trades were realized in the normal session, the weighted average price of all the trades executed during the normal session,

d) If no trades were done during the normal session, theoretical prices calculated, considering prices of underlying asset and other contracts based on the same underlying asset, will be determined as the daily settlement price.

If the daily settlement price cannot be calculated with the above methods by the end of the normal session, or the prices calculated do not reflect the market correctly, the Exchange may determine the daily settlement price in consideration of theoretical price, spot price of the underlying asset, the previous day’s settlement price or the best bid and ask prices at the end of the session.

Trade reporting will not be taken into consideration in the above calculations. The Settlement Price Committee’s right to change the daily settlement price is under reserve.

Final Settlement Price

For call options, final settlement price is calculated as the difference between the value of multiplying the average of USDollar selling and buying rate announced by the CBRT at 15:30 of the last trading day by 1,000 and the option contract’s strike price. The final value is rounded to the nearest price tick.

For put options, final settlement price is calculated as the difference between the option contract’s strike price and the value of multiplying the average of USDollar selling and buying rate announced by the CBRT at 15:30 of the last trading day by 1,000. The final value is rounded to the nearest price tick. If the related selling rate is not announced by CBRT on the last trading day, the final settlement price shall be determined by the Settlement Price Committee.
