K3 for Trading
Position Limits
The Leader in Position Limit Monitoring
BroadPeak’s position limits module is your go-to solution for managing the complexities of trading position limits with ease, ensuring compliance across varying exchanges and regulatory regimes.
K3’s connectivity to both C/ETRMs and to exchanges enables accurate measurement of position limits in real time.
Why is it so difficult to cleanly tackle position limits?
Position limits are often denominated in an exchange-defined delta, which likely differs from the definition of delta used internally by your risk team. BroadPeak is able to ensure your compliance by measuring your positions in the same terms as regulators in exchanges.
Position limits are typically categorized differently than your internal trading books. To make them mutually comparable, BroadPeak can convert your book structure to that of the authority that’s setting the limits.
Position limits can differ depending on where you are in the lifecycle of a contract position. BroadPeak is able to handle the highly-complex logic of diminishing contracts.
Spot month limits can differ from limits further out the curve and are difficult to track because of complex calendars utilized by exchanges. BroadPeak gives you the tools to do this efficiently.
K3 streams real-time data, calculating and displaying the results in an intuitive and user-friendly dashboard. Backed by exchange data directly from the cloud, our solution offers interactive visual reports for clear, reliable, timely insights.
