Margin calculation
Premium margin:
• Current value of position to be closed at settlement price
• Long positions reduce the margin requirement of short positions
Additional margin:
• Covering the risk of an option price change during the next trading
day (overnight risk)
• Different contracts can offset their single margin requirement, only
upside or downside risk is taken (the higher one)
•
•
•
Maximum netting of all products
long positions in options cause margin reductions
but no positive margin
