Resolution criteria

Resolution criteria are the published rules that decide a market's outcome, including the treatment of postponements, abandonments, corrections, and ambiguity in the underlying result. They are the contract. Where two venues disagree on a result, the disagreement is almost always in the criteria rather than in the event itself.
