Hi Friends .. I have few questions on R K Global
1. Do they offer margin for intraday FUTURES trading? Their website says "Minimum 50% cash margin and rest in form of NSE approved shares with 30% hair cut."
What does this mean?
2. Is there any special advantage of having bank account with HDFC. Their website says that "Clients having bank a/c with other banks can also start trading but exposure/credit will be given only after the fund is credited to our a/c."
What does "exposure/credit will be given only after the fund is credited " mean?
How is it different if I have account with HDFC?
R K Global users - pls. hlep me understand.
RKG blocks 10% for a futures contract and in times of extreme volatility it is 15%.
Haircut is the portion of the value that is not taken into consideration.It is a sort of buffer that the brokerage keeps as a backup.
Margin can be in the form of cash or by securities already held by which you can enter positions by borrowing on these shares value less any haircut.
HDFC account needs a follow up. Once you transfer it online,it gets credited immediately in the back office records of RKG. In case of other accounts once you transfer it,you need to email them and give them a call,for it to get reflected.It takes say 15 minutes. So better to go for an HDFC account.
