Futures Contracts

Daily settlement price determination Pursuant to the Trading Rules for respective Futures Contracts, the daily settlement prices of futures contracts for various expiry months are determined in accordance with the trading data from the regular session and following provisions:
  • The volume-weighted average price of all trades during the last minute before market close shall be used.
  • If there is no traded price for the contract during the last minute of trade on the current day, the average of the highest unexecuted bid and lowest unexecuted ask quoted as of market close shall be taken as the daily settlement price.
  • When there is no quoted bid price, the lowest quoted ask price shall be taken as the daily settlement price; when there is no quoted ask price, then the highest quoted bid price shall be taken as the daily settlement price.
  • When there is no quoted bid nor ask price for a non-spot-month futures contract, then the price difference between the settlement price of the spot-month futures contract and the settlement price of the far-month futures contract on the previous business day shall be taken as the basis of the calculation, whereby the sum of the current day's settlement price of the spot-month futures contract and the above price difference will be taken as the daily settlement price of the far-month contract.
  • Where a daily settlement price cannot be determined by aforementioned provisions, or when the settlement price as calculated by those provisions is obviously unreasonable, the daily settlement price shall be decided by TAIFEX.
Publication of daily settlement prices and open interest The settlement prices of futures contracts of various expiry-months and the amount of open interest shall be published daily via the trading system after the close of regular session.
