Margin | For individual customers, margins are calculated based on the maximum leverage ratio of 25 times as prescribed in the relevant laws and regulations. For Trading Members or Non-Individual Customers, TFX determines the Margin Reference Amount that covers 99% confidence level of the fluctuation distribution generated by applying the statistical method to the data on the daily price fluctuation of each product (herein-after called “HV method”). The sample periods are past 8 weeks and 104 weeks, and the larger of the two calculation results is adopted. Additionally, for Market Makers, the minimum margin ratio calculated on the basis of historical price movement is adopted by each product. In principle, the Margin Reference Amount is reviewed on a weekly basis. |
