To maintain a fair and transparent trading environment and prevent the risk of price manipulation, BTSE enforces a Self Trade Prevention mechanism. This helps preserve the integrity of market activity by ensuring that users cannot trade against themselves.

BTSE does not allow trading between a Main account and its sub-accounts, or between sub-accounts under the same Main account.

What defines a self-trade?

A self-trade occurs when:

• An order is matched with another order from the same account.
  
  

• An order is matched with an order from a sub-account or the Main account within the same ownership group.
