According to the announcement, the uptick rule will be applied starting from September 22 until further notice. The uptick rule mandates that in short selling transactions, the selling price must be at a level higher than the price of the previous transaction. This regulation aims to limit market volatility and prevent speculative movements. The decision covers stocks traded on the BIST 50 index. The implementation will remain in effect until a new announcement is made. Investors may need to review their short selling strategies according to this new rule. Market participants will closely monitor the effects of the regulation on liquidity and price formation. Not investment advice.

The short-term impact of the news about the short-selling regulation is uncertain; since the content of the regulation (whether it is a restriction or liberalization) is not clear, determining the direction is difficult. In the technical view, RSI is neutral around 50, MACD is in negative territory but above the signal line, and the price is slightly above SMA20 and stuck below SMA50. This picture supports the possibility of a sideways-volatile course. Volatility may increase depending on the news flow; the 13300-13500 band is critical in the short term. For a clear direction signal, the details of the regulation and the volume reaction should be monitored.
