This message contains important information regarding the Genium INET upgrade to 4.0220 which includes the new functionalities and enhancements going live June 9th, 2014.

   

Automatic Give Up / Take Up

NASDAQ OMX Commodities will introduce Automatic Give up and Take up with the go live of Genium INET 4.0220.

 

  • Automated give up.

Automated give-up adds the possibility to specify give up information in the trade report or order transaction. The matched trade report or order will be automatically given up to the correct parties account.

 

  • Automated take up.

Automated take-up allows the clearing member to set an exposure limit for the client account and automatically take up trades within the limit.

 

Automatic Give up / Take up will be supported in Clearing Workstation 1 and 2, OMnet API and FIX. Please refer to the OMnet and FIX specifications for further information.

 

   

Inter Commodity Spread Credit improved to handle negative correlation
Current implementation of the Commodities margin method does not allow for Inter Commodity Spread Credit (ICSC) between two contracts (i.e.: Tiers) with negative correlation.

This limitation is now removed and improves the possibility to allow for ICSC, should historical correlation data and economic theory support a credit.

There will be no format changes in the SPAN®-risk parameter file.

 

Details for developers

When inter commodity spread calculations are performed, the Inter Commodity Spread table is traversed from the lowest priority number to the highest.

 

For each spread in the table check if netting is possible when taking A/B (‘sign of delta’) for the two legs of the spread into consideration, if not jump to the next priority level.

In previous versions, it was a requirement that one leg had A/B = A while the other leg had A/B = B, meaning that the two legs must have different sign on delta.

Now, the system also allows that both legs of a spread have A/B = A, or A/B = B, which means that the two legs should have the same sign on delta
