What is peak margin?
Peak Margin is the minimum margin that must be collected by brokers from their clients in advance of placing any intraday or delivery order in the cash and derivatives segment. Clearing corporations will randomly take 4 snapshots at predefined time windows to determine the peak margin requirements on open positions during the day. The highest margin requirement from these 4 snapshots will be considered the Peak Margin. This measure aims to curb excessive leverage for intraday and derivatives positions. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask!
