PositionsAutoHedge
PositionsAutoHedge allows users to set up hedging rules for XCore accounts of type RISK. This component allows to set automated hedging rules per symbol which upon their definition, will reduce the internal exposure of an XCore Account of type RISK by sending a trade for execution directly to a Liquidity Provider. PositionsAutoHedge has the following attributes:
| attribute | description |
|---|---|
| Instance | The name of the XCore. |
| Account | The name of the XCore Account of type RISK for which the hedging rule is set. |
| Connector Account | The connector account from which the execution happens once the hedging rule is triggered. |
| Stream | The name of stream in order to select the symbol to which the hedging rule applies. Note: Needed purely to be able to select symbol on another field. |
| Symbol | The symbol to which the hedging rule applies. |
| Max Position | The Max limit of the position upon which once the limit is broken the hedging rule will be triggered. Note: Max limit is defined in nominal value. |
| Min Size | The min size defines the min size of the trade of the execution what would be triggered to place an order. Example 1: - Max Position = 1000000 - Min size = 100000 Once the position has reached 1050000 then a trade is sent for execution with size 100000 and the position is reduced to 950000. Example 2: - Max Position = 1000000 - Min Size = 100000 Once the position has reached 1400000 then a trade is sent for execution with size 400000 and the position is reduced to 1000000. |
