Watch for trading halts

Lesson 6 of 8 in The Daily Tape. Daily Desk grade, 60 XP. Free to read, mission runs live in the terminal.

» Stocks halt when something sudden is news — a catalyst, a halt news, or an SRO.

» A halt is information: it tells you something just changed about that name.

» The halts board lets you watch resumptions and read the volatility in real time.

» Open the halts page and see what's currently paused.

Watching a concept is not the same as running it, so every Academy lesson ships with a live mission inside the Tapeboard terminal. This one runs on the halts feed (/halts). Reading is free; running missions takes a free account.
