The Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) Tuesday announced the availability of the negative price level feature in Exchange Trading System for Commodity Derivatives Segment.
This latest development comes following the recent global developments in the crude oil derivatives markets where trading of derivatives contracts happened at negative prices owing to various underlying factors, said the BSE in a press release.
