Hi TSO,
Can any initiative be taken to lower margins for spread orders. No low cost or any major broker does so. In butterfly the risk of loss is restricted to the cost of premiums. Still margin taken usually is of Rs 45000 for 1 butterfly plus the cost of premiums. Can the margins be reduced.
Note: The same is provided at US markets http://ibkb.interactivebrokers.com/article/603
Please also check http://www.cboe.com/learncenter/pdf/margin2-00.pdf
which is applicable at Us markets.
Thanks
