Calculating Margin<br />

Starting with X_TRADER 7.8, <strong>TT</strong> software uses the following formula to<br />

calculate the total Margin for a product using Intra‐Product Spread<br />

Margining:<br />

(Worst Case Net Product Position * Future Margin) + (Synthetic Spread<br />

Position * Spread Margin) + (Even‐legged Exchange Spreads * Spread<br />

Margin)<br />

Prior to version 7.8, the margin calculated was only Future Margin:<br />

(Worst Case Net Product Position * Future Margin)<br />

Note: If risk administrators have not entered margin for spread products in<br />

the Guardian Product Table, then the formula will continue to only take<br />

Future Margin into account.<br />
