Chicago Mercantile Exchange Group (CME Group), the world’s largest derivatives exchange, has suspended foreign exchange trading after a cooling system malfunction at its data center. The outage has temporarily halted trading in major currency futures and options, including contracts tied to the U.S. dollar, euro, and yen. CME stated that its technical team is working urgently to restore operations and will provide clients with updated pre‑market details once the issue is resolved.
Client Alert – Impact on EA Orders
CME Group’s suspension of foreign exchange trading due to a cooling system failure may affect automated trading systems (Expert Advisors). While EAs will continue running on your platform, any strategies relying on CME liquidity or price feeds could face execution delays, rejected orders, or increased slippage. We recommend monitoring EA logs closely and considering temporary manual oversight until CME restores normal operations.
