Portal Updates

  1. A new "Participant Positions" page
  2. An updated "Platform Positions" page
    Here is the Participant Positions page location on the Portal:

This page allows any Zero Hash customer of a platform to view helpful position-related stats:

The Platform Positions page is located in the same spot and has a similar look to that of the Participant page, providing insight into the positions of all customers in addition to yours:

Stats and Definitions

  • Position (Accepted)- Refers to a position that exists due to trades that have not yet been processed by the settlement system, i.e. due to trades with a trade state of 'accepted'.
  • NAB- Net Account Balance that is held in an asset on a particular platform. It is calculated as: Available + Receivable - Payable + Collateral - Collateral Payable.
  • Expected NDO- Position (Accepted) minus NAB. If this number is less than 0, you do not owe for this asset as of this moment. The value will display as 0 in this case. In other words, this is the Net Delivery Obligation that will become due in the future based on your current positions.
  • Position (Active)- Refers to a position that exists due to trades that have been processed by the settlement system, but are outstanding due to outstanding delivery obligations, i.e. due to trades with a trade state of 'active'.
    NDO- Refers to Net Delivery Obligations. This amount must be delivered before Position (Active) can settle.
  • Position (All)- Refers a position due to all open trades, i.e. due to trades with a trade state of 'accepted' or 'active'.
