Limit-up/Limit-down applies to individual equities that are moving strongly in either direction.

The market-wide circuit breakers, which triggered this morning, only apply to declines.

Single-stock volatility halts happen in either direction, but market-wide circuit breakers only happen on down moves.

The limits for individual stocks are up/down limits, but the market-wide halts are only for declines.
