Post From: Client controlled increased margin requirements for risk management

I would like to increase my own margin requirements. I understand that this is mostly controlled by the trader's FCM/Broker. Is there a way to increase it myself through some sort of multiplier? I understand there are Global Trade Position limits but that is not what I am looking for. For example, at AMP I only need $100 in margin per MNQ and $40 per MES. If I could multiply this by 10, then I would need $1,000 per MNQ and $400 per MES. Is there any way to to do this on the client side? I know some data/execution providers have some control over this (CQG I think), but I would like to do this through Denali + Teton. By setting it this way, my position limits would automatically scale with my account size and I would be able to limit my position size at the contract level. A global position limit of lets say 10 would not distinguish between MES, ES, MNQ, NQ, ZN, etc. |
