Lede: On October 14, 2026, U.S. exchanges issued 70 trading halts: 66 LULD/volatility pauses, 2 T1 news-pending halts, and 2 other regulatory halts (both T3). The most newsworthy action came after the close, when BTOC and TJGC were each halted on a T1 halt basis at 7:50 PM ET pending the release of material news, with no resumption time yet reported. The bulk of the day was dominated by small-cap volatility: AEHL alone triggered a circuit breaker 13 separate times, and RIBB was paused 8 times in a classic LULD halt cascade. Days with this many repeat halts are a good reminder of why reviewing your executions in a trade journal matters — traders comparing tools can see how Tapeboard stacks up as a TraderVue for post-session review.

Halt-by-Halt Summary

The day's two T1 news-pending halts — BTOC and TJGC, both issued at 7:50 PM ET — are the most consequential entries; each remains halted with no resumption time reported, and trading will resume only after the material news is released and the exchange determines an orderly market can be maintained. The two T3 halts — FFAI at 7:25 AM and SMHC at 9:29 AM — were regulatory pauses, both later resumed. Everything else was mechanical volatility: AEHL's 13 LULD halts and RIBB's 8 reflect repeated band breaches, not news events, and each pause followed the standard five-minute (or extended) LULD protocol.

What Is an LULD Halt?

A Limit Up-Limit Down halt pauses trading when a stock's price moves more than a defined percentage away from its recent five-minute average. The bands are 5% for most large-cap S&P 500 names, 10% for smaller stocks, and 20% for stocks under $3. Most LULD halts last five minutes.

What Does a T1 Halt Mean?

A T1 halt is a regulatory pause pending the release of material news. It has no fixed duration and resumes when the exchange determines an orderly market can be maintained.

Tapeboard publishes a daily trading-halt log at tapeboard.com, updated through the trading day with halt codes, timestamps, and resumption status.

What is an LULD halt?

A Limit Up-Limit Down halt pauses trading when a stock's price moves more than a defined percentage away from its recent five-minute average. Bands are 5% for most large-cap S&P 500 names, 10% for smaller stocks, and 20% for stocks under $3. Most LULD halts last five minutes.

How long does a trading halt last?

LULD halts are typically five minutes; T1 news halts often run 30+ minutes; regulatory T12 halts can extend for days.
