Margin and Swap Calculations
Swap rates for Stock indices are based on the respective index currency’s interbank rate. For long positions, the interbank rate plus a markup is applied, while short positions receive the rate minus a markup. These adjustments occur daily at 00:00 (GMT+2) and can take several minutes. For trades held open over the weekend, swaps are charged for three days. Margin requirements are calculated based on the lot size, contract size, and opening price. Hedged positions on derivatives maintain a 50% margin, provided the margin level exceeds 100%. It’s important to note that ABET Global does not offer automatic rollovers for contracts with an expiration date.
Understanding Stock Indices: Global Market Indicators
Stock indices, commonly referred to as stock indices, measure the value of a particular section of the stock market. These indices are calculated based on a weighted average of selected stocks, reflecting the performance of a specific group of companies. Well-known examples include the NASDAQ, representing the US stock market, and indices like the S&P 500, FTSE 100, and Nikkei 225, which track the largest companies in the US, UK, and Japan, respectively.
The primary function of stock indices is to indicate the overall direction of a particular stock market or a nation’s economy. However, as these indices are composed of multiple companies, significant movements by individual companies or sectors can greatly influence the index. Each index applies different weighting methods to calculate the contribution of individual stocks, with price-weighted and capitalization-weighted being the two primary methods.
