    AI summaryWhere a member submits many orders without any trade, so the RTS 9 order-to-trade ratio cannot be computed, venues should treat the maximum ratio as breached once the orders exceed the number allowed per executed transaction (for example more than 10 orders with no trade where the limit is 10).
