Calculation of the Settlement Amount
If a contract has exercisable intrinsic value, the calculation of the Final Settlement Amount follows the below set steps:
Step 1 - Calculation of the Intrinsic Value
Product Type: Intrinsic Value
Vanilla Call Option: Settlement Reference Price minus Strike Price
Vanilla Put Option: Strike Price minus Settlement Reference Price
Call Spread Option: Min (Upper Strike, Settlement Reference Price) minus Lower Strike
Put Spread Option: Upper Strike minus Max (Lower Strike, Settlement Reference Price)
Binary Call Option: 1
Binary Put Option: 1
Up-And-Out Call Option: Settlement Reference Price minus Strike Price
Up-And-In Call Option: Settlement Reference Price minus Strike Price
Down-And-In Put Option: Strike Price minus Settlement Reference Price
Down-And-Out Put Option: Strike Price minus Settlement Reference Price
Forward Contract: Settlement Reference Price
Step 2 – Calculation of the Scaled Intrinsic Value
The Scaled Intrinsic Value is calculated by multiplying the Intrinsic Value with the position size
Step 3 – Calculation of the Contract Settlement Amount
Contracts that have a different Settlement Contract than the Strike Contract require a conversion of the Scaled Intrinsic Value from the Strike Contract into the Settlement Contract using the Settlement Reference Price.
For Contract that have the same Settlement and strike Contract, the Contract Settlement Amount is equal to the Scaled Intrinsic Value.
