These features ensure that the protocol can adapt to changing market conditions while maintaining stability and predictability. ## What You'll Learn * How Auto-Rolling enables continuous investment without manual intervention * How new markets are listed and delisted in an orderly fashion * How Itayose price discovery ensures fair pricing when new markets open * How market transitions are managed to maintain liquidity ## Key Components * [**Auto-Rolling**](/fixed-rate-lending/advanced-topics/market-dynamics/auto-rolling.md): The mechanism that automatically reinvests funds at maturity * [**Market Listing and Delisting**](/fixed-rate-lending/advanced-topics/market-dynamics/new-market-listing-and-delisting.md): The process for introducing new markets and retiring old ones * [**Itayose Price Discovery**](/fixed-rate-lending/advanced-topics/market-dynamics/new-market-listing-and-delisting/itayose-fair-price-discovery.md): The algorithm for determining fair prices when new markets open ## Related Resources * [Orderbook Deep Dive](/fixed-rate-lending/advanced-topics/orderbook-deep-dive.md) * [Safety Measures](/fixed-rate-lending/advanced-topics/safety-measures.md) * [Core Mechanics](/fixed-rate-lending/core-mechanics.md) --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.secured.finance/fixed-rate-lending/advanced-topics/market-dynamics.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
