Trading on the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX) continues to remain disrupted despite the exchange’s earlier announcement that trading would resume at 9:30 am today (Tuesday, October 28).
Earlier this morning, MCX had issued a notification stating:
“Members are requested to note that trading will start at 9:30 AM due to a technical issue. Trading will start from DR (Disaster Recovery) site. Inconvenience is regretted.”
However, several traders have reported that the platform remains unresponsive even after the scheduled restart time. Screens across major broker terminals, including those for Gold, Silver, and Copper futures, continue to show no updated bid or ask rates.
The MCX Disaster Recovery website (https://dr.mcxindia.com), which the exchange had designated for today’s session, is also reportedly facing intermittent connectivity issues.
This is the second major technical disruption in recent months, raising concerns among traders who rely heavily on the exchange’s real-time commodity data and order execution systems.
Social media platforms, including X (formerly Twitter), have been flooded with user complaints. Verified handle @MagicNifty posted, “MCX is not working today. After 9:30 it will again start working,” reflecting widespread frustration among traders.
As of the latest update, MCX has not issued a new clarification or estimated recovery time.
