That's about right. This is not an exact science but considering the unit sizes you are demoing, this is as close as it gets. My real account is showing, short 666.33 for the USD at a balance of $2,205.15 , currently with an exposure factor of 0.6000. It is a floating amount so at the time you entered caused this. But you are close to being flat....in the scheme of things. You could fine tune it if you wish, but since its floating, there is not much accomplished for your time. Michael B.
Thats true. The amount isn't all that significant. So now its a matter of daily updating and adding and decreasing when necessary. Lets see how this plays out.
There never is decreasing with Cash & Carry (Standard). There are factor adjustments to posture with, but when they are adjusted its simply a waiting game for the actual # of units to catch up. Michael B. P.S. Hello riskarb...good to see you post. Thanks!
