SPAN margin is short for Standardized Portfolio Analysis of Risk. This is a leading margin system, which has been adopted by most Futures & Options exchanges around the world. SPAN is based on a sophisticated set of algorithms that determine margin according to a global (total portfolio) assessment of the one-day risk for a trader's account. It is essentially based on the maximum loss you might sustain in various market scenarios. Among Indian bourses, Nifty SPAN margin and other margins are evaluated six times during a trading day. Depending on the time of day you use the calculator, the SPAN margin will offer you differing values.
When you trade in the Derivatives market, you are required to deposit margin money with your broker (for example, Sharekhan). This money shields the broker from potential losses if you are unable to execute a trade because of unfavourable market fluctuations. Therefore, you must first deposit initial margin into your trading account to take positions in the Futures & Options segment. The index, the kind of derivative you intend to trade in and market risks all affect the margin amount.
Standardized portfolio analysis of risk (SPAN) and Exposure Margin together constitute the initial margin that is required to take exposure in F&O. However, when trading in Derivatives, there are more factors to be taken into account when calculating margins in addition to these two types of margins. These calculations might be difficult and time-consuming to carry out, especially for time-strapped traders.
An online margin calculator can be useful in such situations to figure out the various margin needs for the Derivatives market position you wish to take.
Firstly, choose the segment you wish to calculate margin for. The appropriate margin calculator will appear just below. Enter a few basic details like the exchange, the product (Futures, Options and so on), enter the first few characters of the symbol and the quantity. Then choose the leg (Buy/Sell) and hit CALCULATE.
The SPAN margin, exposure margin and additional exposure margin (if any) will be displayed with the total margin. Now you don’t need to go far to calculate trading margin. Trade in the Derivatives market seamlessly and with peace of mind!
