“Dear Traders,

Due to the extreme volatility some market analysts foresee could result in the coming days, Chicago Mercantile Exchange will not accept any trading activity from 6:00 AM EDT until approximately 3:00 PM EDT, on Sunday, June 17, 2012. Chicago Mercantile Exchangebelieves the convergence of a major market event during off-market hours represents a potential trading risk and has taken this rare step to protect traders from excessive rate fluctuations.

Please note that during this halt in trading, you can still access your account details but no trading activity will be accepted. For this reason, Chicago Mercantile Exchange strongly recommends that all traders consider minimizing currency exposures prior to the trading halt.”
