3.0     Trading Practices and Conduct

3.1      Introduction

3.1.1.          Confidence in the financial system and effective intermediation of financial flow requires that markets be fair, orderly and transparent. Improper conduct which gives rise to a false or misleading appearance of trading activity, price movements or market information undermines market integrity and erodes investor confidence. MX Global seeks to ensure that its markets are fair and orderly and free of manipulative trading.

3.1.2.          Clients must ensure that their trading is conducted in accordance with the MX Global Rules and the Capital Market and Services Act 2007.

3.2      False Trading and Market Rigging

3.2.1.    Clients must not engage in any course of conduct that is likely to create a false or misleading appearance:

a)         of active trading in any Securities; or

b)         with respect to the market for, or the price of, any Security.

3.2.2.          MX Global prohibits false trading and market rigging. This trading misconduct involves an intentional interference with the free forces of supply & demand and price the Security traded. This distortive effect occurs as a result of any trading strategy or practice that may be employed in order to artificially manage the market for, or the price of, the Security concerned.

3.2.3.          MX Global’s determination of whether a course of conduct is likely to create a false or misleading appearance will be made on an objective basis. In other words, the Rule does not require the Client to have intended to create the false or misleading appearance, or knew that it or he was in fact creating a false or misleading appearance. Factors that MX Global may take into account when making the said determination are as follows:

a)         whether the execution of the transaction is inconsistent with the recent trading activity in the marketplace, taking into account prevailing market conditions;

•           Also identified as “Price Driver” when the execution of transactions is responsible for a large proportion of price increases/decreases but with only a small proportion of traded volume.

b)         whether the non-bona fide orders placed is for the purpose of generating unnecessary volatility or creating a condition in which prices do not or will not reflect fair market values intended to mislead other clients.

c)         whether the orders are initially placed in multiple price tiers on one side of the orderbook and having them switched to the other side of the orderbook.

•           A client should not make large entries above or below the prevailing spread to facilitate filling an order on the other side of the market. The placing of buy (or sell) orders at various price steps below (or above) the market may create a false or misleading appearance that the entries are on behalf of genuine buyers (or sellers). The layering of orders also translates into a change in the depth screen and may mislead market clients with respect to interest in the marketplace.

d)         whether the execution of transaction is likely to coincide with or influence the calculation of circuit breaker prices, settlement prices and valuations;

•           Clients who purposely and persistently place orders near the price referencing determination which will move the price when executed.

e)         whether the execution of the transaction involves the placing of multiple buy orders and sell orders at various prices higher or lower than the market price, or the placing of buy and sell orders that give the appearance of increased volume.

f)          whether the parties involved in a transaction are connected or associated with each other;

•           Also identified as “Money Pass” when client A is buying 1 BTC from client B and then selling back the 1 BTC to client B at the same price.

•           Also identified as “Wash Sales” when client A is constantly matching any orders coming from client B and both of these clients are having common beneficial ownership and/or affiliation

•           Also identified as “Collusion” when a group of clients is working together to influence the market supply or demand of a market to a specific pricing level in order to gain an unfair market advantage 

g)         whether the orders placed has been pre-arranged (or discussed with another market client prior to being placed on MX Global) for the purpose of creating an artificial price or other disruptive, fraudulent, non-competitive, or unfair impact on the MX Global’s marketplace.

h)         whether the execution of transactions is responsible for any unusual price movement on one side of the orderbook and then to have execution of transactions in the reverse direction of the orderbook to capitalize on the price movement in several loops.

3.2.4.          A Client must not deal in a marketplace in a manner that will or may have the effect of raising, lowering, maintaining or stabilizing the price of the Security or its underlying (where applicable), with intent to induce other persons to purchase or sell the Security.

3.2.5.          A Client must immediately inform MX Global if he or she reasonably suspects, or knows of, any attempted market manipulation or any other prohibited trading conduct.

3.2.6.          The Rule does not prevent Clients from carrying out legitimate trading strategies that reflect the forces of genuine supply and demand. However, Clients must do so bearing in mind their obligations to maintain an orderly market, and to conduct their trading activities with an appropriate degree of care.

3.2.7.          MX Global is unlikely to have concerns if the order or transaction is executed in a proper manner and that there is a legitimate commercial rationale for engaging in the said course of conduct.

3.2.8.          In determining whether a course of conduct is likely to create a false or misleading appearance, MX Global will make the necessary inference from circumstantial evidence, such as an unusual pattern of trading, as well as a person’s interest (whether genuine or ulterior motive) in the market in question.

3.2.9.          In the event that a Client reasonably suspects that an order may be for some other ulterior purpose but continue to facilitate the transaction, the Client must be aware that his or her contributing act towards the transaction may be unlawful.

3.2.10.        A Client must not knowingly take advantage of a situation arising from:

•           a breakdown or malfunction in any of MX Global’s procedures or systems; or

•           errors made by MX Global.

3.2.11.        MX Global may cancel any orders found with the above elements or in MX Global’s opinion, is in the best interest of the marketplace and all Clients, to do so.

6.3.5   Circuit Breaker Mechanism

MX is taking a preventive approach to discourage disorderly markets; and to allow its Client(s) to reassess their strategies and positions and make investment decisions during sudden price volatility caused by rapid price movements by having a circuit breaker mechanism in place.

A Circuit Breaker is a term used for a market-wide approach to manage downward/upward movement of the market price by halting trading temporarily in the market during normal trading hours, during which time information is disseminated to all market participants.

Activating a Circuit Breaker provides the opportunity for information dissemination to all market participants, including investors, to make well-considered investment decisions.

 

Conditions for Activation	The execution of order which causes the market price to fall outside of the price fluctuation threshold and this applies to all trading pairs independently
Trading Pairs which the circuit breaker applies	·         BTC/MYR ·         ETH/MYR
Suspension Period	1 Hour
Public information to be displayed	·         Circuit Breaker status (Triggered or Not-Triggered) ·         Circuit Breaker starting and ending period

 

1.    The Circuit Breaker will be activated and will halt the current market trading automatically once the market price fall outside of the Price Fluctuation Threshold and an email notification regarding the event will be sent to all Client(s).

2.    During the Suspension Period:

o    MX Client(s) are not ALLOWED to place FAK orders or limit orders.

o    MX Client(s) can cancel their existing open orders manually.

o    MX Client(s) orders will remain on the orderbook until the orders are matched and executed if users choose not to cancel their orders.

Once the Suspension Period ends (1 hour), MX users will be able to resume their normal trading activities.

In order to provide liquidity of Digital Assets to all of the users in a fair and transparent environment, MX Global conducts market making on its platform based on the following methodology as permitted under the RMO guidelines.

Methodology

• All market making activities carried out by MX Global are from its own funds deposited to
  the platform and such funds will be replenished as and when it is needed to ensure that the
  market making activities can be carried out with minimal disruption.
• The prices for all orders placed by MX Global are referenced real-time from international
  exchanges and is denominated in “MYR”;
• All of the orders are placed via a proprietary trading algorithm which is built based on the
  exchange’s open Application Programming Interface (“API”) which has been enabled for
  all users.
• MX Global’s market making account is subject to the same compliance
  policies/framework, fees and account limitations that applies to all users, and does not
  engage in front-running users’ orders.

Note: MX Global reserves the rights to amend this parameter to adjust to market conditions

8.2.1.          MX Global has three (3) key regulatory tools to support a fair, orderly and transparent market. They are as follows:
