Limit Up

From Reuters Financial Glossary

Synonym: Limit Down

The maximum advance or decline from a previous day's settlement price that is allowed in one trading session. Some markets do not trade again during the session after a limit up/down move unless prices retreat from that limit. Other markets suspend trading temporarily when limits are hit and then reopen with expanded limit levels.
