Title: Re: Question- what laws are involved in derivatives ? Post by: rroyk on May 31, 2019, 09:35:22 AM second i would like to know how exchanges like bitmex, deribit etc provide funding and liquidity .
like for instance a guy with 100 dollar can trade dollar 5000 with 50X leverage if the price goes up 5% he earns 250% that means 250$ . now the question i am asking is how to exchanges pay that $500. if you will say that other people buy the first guy order then i am gonna say next guy who bought the same stock with 100X leverage and capital $50 now the contract is settled with the first who earned $250+$100 capital. and the order is fullfilled by a $50 margin trade by another person. So how does the exchange pay that $250 ? i dont think i am going right but i am confused though. Title: Re: Question- what laws are involved in derivatives ?

That would depend on where they operated. In US, you can learn about CME futures to see an example of how it gets approved by the government. second i would like to know how exchanges like bitmex, deribit etc provide funding and liquidity . like for instance a guy with 100 dollar can trade dollar 5000 with 50X leverage if the price goes up 5% he earns 250% that means 250$ . now the question i am asking is how to exchanges pay that $500. if you will say that other people buy the first guy order then i am gonna say next guy who bought the same stock with 100X leverage and capital $50 now the contract is settled with the first who earned $250+$100 capital. and the order is fullfilled by a $50 margin trade by another person. So how does the exchange pay that $250 ? AFAIK, they have something called a liquidity pool. They'll use this to pay for those who use margin trading. If the exchange is professional, they won't give a trader an opportunity to trade more than they can afford. Let's say your pool would only suffice to support or pay 10x leverage for 1 million users. Allowing them to trade more than 10x leverage would be risky. Sure, they might 'earn' from those who're losing their contract, but it is possible that it won't be enough so they'll need to get more funds.

But at the end they are hardly risking anything because if the trade goes against you they will make sure it's closed before you burst your (their) bank, and even if this does happen (as for example when the Swiss National bank announced it would stop selling CHF to keep the currency low and its value rocketed from 1.2 CHF/EUR to 1 CHF/EUR in a matter of seconds) there are clauses in the contract you signed with them that could eventually hold you legally liable for these additional losses (of course in practice this can seldom be enforced for several reasons).
