Discount for Resilient TF VCCs

No Discount If Both VCCs Can Be Active
If you have two TF VCCs that use the same Trading Floor network and both can be active at the same time, the Exchange will charge you for two VCCs rather than one. This clarification became effective upon filing on January 28, 2026.
