MCX Trading Halted by Glitch, Operations Resume After Delay
Imagine a stock market for things like gold and oil, called MCX.
Today, it had a computer problem and couldn't open on time.
Usually, it starts trading at 9 am, but because of a glitch, it got delayed.
The people in charge fixed it, and trading started again around 10:30 am.
During the delay, people could still buy and sell things, but they had to use a different system.
The problem was caused by issues with computer processes and file sharing.
MCX trading halted for about an hour due to a technical glitch.
The exchange initially aimed to resume trading by 9:45 am but later revised to 10:10 am.
Operations started around 10:30 am.
The issue was due to delays in clearing technical processes and file sharing.
Zerodha advised placing orders in the NSE Commodity segment.
