If a contract has a hedge requirement, this automatically creates a record in the Hedge allocation screen.
However, there are circumstances in which you might not want to hedge a contract. For example: when doing back-to-back sales, or for Position purposes. In these cases, you may remove the hedge requirement by indicating this on the Risk tab of the contract.
| • | The No hedging check box is shown when Risk tab of a Sales contract is in Edit mode. |
| • | Ticking the No hedging check box removes the fixing and hedge requirement for both Priced and To be priced contracts. |
| • | The lots will then not be included in the Position screen under Futures - To be fixed. |
Note: This check box will not be shown if a Hedge Allocation has already been made.
| • | Once saved, the Position section will show the text "No hedging" to indicate that there is no hedge requirement for this contract delivery. |
