Positions

In financial markets, when you execute a transaction that adds a security (such as a stock, bond, ETF, or derivatives contract) to your account, the resulting exposure to price changes in that security is known as a position or trading position. This position can be classified as either "long" or "short.

After each order and deal, the client's relevant position is adjusted based on the deal. In cases where a position is affected by multiple deals, such as fill, partial fill, the positions related to that financial instrument are adjusted accordingly. This adjustment also impacts the Security Deposit Account and Internal Account of the client.

Only one position for a financial instrument can exist:

• If there is an open position for a financial instrument, executing a deal in the same direction increases the volume.
• If a deal is executed in the opposite direction, the volume decreases.
