Disclaimer
For the avoidance of doubt, in the event of any inconsistency between any Exchange or ICSG rules (including these specifications), on one hand, and any terminology or documentation which is used or made available by the Exchange or ICSG (such as without limitation technical release notes and user guides) on the other hand, the former will prevail. When used in these specifications, “day” refers to a Singapore calendar day, as the context admits.

To retail investors: Futures contracts based on bitcoin may pose specific risks. Such risks may arise from greater volatility in prices resulting from a range of factors. Those risks could in turn affect financial outcomes associated with maintaining required margins or any losses at final contract settlement.
