Margin Calculator
The CME Margin Calculator is designed to let Metro users view their initial and maintenance margins for their CME cleared products along with the Net Option Value and Net Future Value. It uses the CME CORE API margin service to provide the end user with a periodically updated official margin calculation from the CME. Margin data is displayed per trade account and can be updated manually, when a new trade is submitted and on application launch.
