Samco Commodity Span

If you are someone who prefers to perform commodity trading and wants to use span margin in your trades, then with Samco – you will get the following commodity trading margin:

 

The margin values have a lot to do with market/industry volatility. In fact, both are directly proportional i.e. if market volatility is low – then the corresponding margin offered will be limited as well. On the other hand, with higher volatility, the discount broker opens up higher-margin values for clients to use.

Although, the number of commodities is way lesser as compared to Equity Shares, however, the commodity market is controlled not at just the domestic level but also by global events.

For instance, any political movement in the middle-east or aluminium manufacturing-related call in China will directly be impacting the Indian Commodity Space.

Thus, the market moves on a continuum basis leaving reasonable opportunities for traders and investors.

This must be known that under Commodity Derivatives trading in MCX, there are two types of margin policies depending on the trading type i.e. Positional trading and Intraday trading.

For Positional trading, margin consists of MCX Span Margin, Extreme Loss Margin and Exposure Margin. While for intraday trading, margin provided is a small fraction of the total margin calculated at the positional level.

Here are the Samco margin values offered as shown below:
