Once the maximum open interest (OI) is reached for Long and Short Positions respectively for a trading pair, opening position in that direction will be temporarily suspended. This helps to

  • prevent excessive losses in MLP in case of adverse market movements

  • maintain market stability by preventing the accumulation of disproportionately large positions that could impact market dynamics
