Rule 25101.C. Price Increments (BP Futures)
Rule251A01.C. Price Increments (BP Options)
Interpretations to Chapter 5-CME GLOBEX ERROR TRADE POLICY-G
Reducing the British pound futures and options minimum price increment from $0.0002 per British pound (=$12.50 per tick) to $0.0001 per British pound (=$6.25 per tick). Also, a language clarification to the GLOBEX®error trade policy to specify the GLOBEX British pound futures no bust range at 30 ticks rather than 15 ticks. Thus, no change in the plus or minus $0.0030 per BP no bust range.
