This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether the federal government should regulate margin requirements for commodity futures contracts has been the subject of intensive debate for over fifty years. Congress has periodically rejected legislation that would have granted such authority. The stock market crash of 1987, and a subsequent mini-crash in 1989, has resulted in renewed demands for federal controls. The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and the Department of the Treasury contend that such controls are necessary to prevent the near disastrous set of events that occurred during those market crises. The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) and the commodity futures industry oppose federal controls on margin, and assert that market forces, not margins, were responsible for the events that occurred during the 1987 and 1989 market breaks. This article addresses these events. Part I discusses the numerous, uniformly unsuccessful efforts by the federal government to impose margin controls on commodity futures in prior years. It also describes the nature of commodity futures margins and the problems encountered in the early history of federal regulation of futures trading. Part II describes federal margin controls over securities transactions and their background. It then examines the Federal Reserve Board's view that federal margin controls are no longer serving the regulatory purposes intended when Congress adopted the controls in 1934. Part III of the article discusses the recent efforts to obtain federal regulatory controls over commodity futures margins following the stock market crash of 1987. It also examines the increased demands by the SEC and the Department of Treasury for such controls as a result of the mini-crash of 1989. Finally, Part IV of the article examines the merits of the arguments over the need for federal margin controls. Opponents contend that rigid federal margin requirements could impair market liquidity. Proponents of margin controls contend that federal regulation is necessary to reduce market volatility and to prevent another stock market crash. The article concludes that the evidence supporting the latter view is weak. Nevertheless, there is some support for the view that residual authority could be given to the Federal Reserve Board to guard against systemic risks.

Book excerpt: Use futures and options to reduce margin requirements and alleviate margin calls--without liquidating holdings or adding funds to your trading account! Margin calls are the necessary evil of trading leveraged instruments. Without margin, speculators would be subject to substantial default risk in addition to the risk of market losses. Unfortunately, many traders allow the fear of a margin call to drive their strategy. Margin calls don’t have to be a horrifying experience. There are tactics you can use to avoid them--or avoid scrambling to meet them.

Book excerpt: CUSTOMER MARGIN RULES RELATING TO SECURITY FUTURES dated July 3, 2019 The Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC") and the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") (collectively, the "Commissions") are proposing amendments to regulations that establish minimum customer margin requirements for security futures.

Why buy a book you can download for free? We print the paperback book so you don't have to. First you gotta find a good clean (legible) copy and make sure it's the latest version (not always easy). Some documents found on the web are missing some pages or the image quality is so poor, they are difficult to read. If you find a good copy, you could print it using a network printer you share with 100 other people (typically its either out of paper or toner). If it's just a 10-page document, no problem, but if it's 250-pages, you will need to punch 3 holes in all those pages and put it in a 3-ring binder. Takes at least an hour. It's much more cost-effective to just order the bound paperback from Amazon.com This book includes original commentary which is copyright material. Note that government documents are in the public domain. We print these paperbacks as a service so you don't have to. The books are compact, tightly-bound paperback, full-size (8 1/2 by 11 inches), with large text and glossy covers. 4th Watch Publishing Co. is a HUBZONE SDVOSB. https: //usgovpub.com

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper examines the impact of margins, adjusted for underlying price risk proxied by market volatility, on trading volume and at the same time incorporates the relationship between trading volume and price volatility documented in equities and futures markets. The study estimates bivariate GARCH-M models to take account of the inter-relationships and applies them to the Greek derivatives market over the period 1999-2005. The results show that when adjusting margins for market risk there is no impact on trading volume, casting doubts on the results of previous research, and providing support for the view that margin requirements are used only as a mechanism to prevent trader default.
