Can you please explain what CME price limits are? Are they related to the trading of cryptocurrencies or financial assets in general? If so, how do they work and what is their purpose in ensuring stability and fairness in the market? Are there any specific regulations or policies that govern these limits, and are there any recent changes or updates that investors should be aware of? What are CME price limits?
