Note：

1.Users can not place trigger orders when that types of contracts are in delivery, settlement or suspension status, which means trigger order function is only available for trading-status contracts. 
2.There is order limit for trigger orders. Users cannot place trigger orders for one type of contract when surpassing order limit of that type of contract.
3.Once the latest traded price has reached the "trigger", the pre-set order will be executed. But if the pre-set order price is not within the price limit (i.e. users set a buy price that is higher than the highest buy price or a sell price that is lower than the lowest sell price), then, the trigger order will fail.
4. When the close trigger orders get executed, the system will place the orders in order book, If the amount of orders placed go below the orders available to close in the users’ account, the actual order quantity will follow the available amount in their account finally. Please note that if the pre-set order price is not within the price limit (i.e. users set a ask price that is higher than the highest ask price or a bid price that is lower than the lowest price due to volatile market, the trigger order designation might fail to be triggered or fail to be fulfilled successfully even after getting triggered.
5.Trigger orders may not be triggered due to sharp fluctuations, price limits, position limits, insufficient margins, insufficient positions to close, non-trading status, network issues, or other system issues.
6.Before the order getting triggered, the margin or positions will not be frozen till the trigger order gets triggered opening/closing positions at pre-set order price and amount.
7.Once the trigger order is triggered, it will be transferred to an ordinary limit order and be placed to order book at the pre-set price. Limit Order is a kind of order type that will only be filled at the optimal price when the selling order price is lower than market price or the buying order price is higher than market price. Please note that whether the order can be successfully filled or not depends on the market conditions.
