The exchange has scheduled the mock trading sessions for all the segments from primary site (PR) and disaster recovery site (DR), according to a circular.
"Trading members using third party trading platforms can also use this opportunity to test their respective trading application during mock trading session for various functionalities (including exceptional market conditions), viz. various types of call auction sessions, risk-reduction mode, trading halt, block deals, etc," it added.
The BSE mock trading session will begin with log-in from 9:15 a.m. to 9:45 a.m. The morning block deal window (PR) will run from 9:45 to 10:00 a.m.
