If you open a position today and close it today, calculate the transaction price difference;

If the position is not open today, calculate the difference between the settlement price and the opening price today;

If the position of the previous trading day is closed today, the difference between its closing price and the settlement price of the previous trading day shall be calculated;

If the position held in the previous trading day is held today, the difference between the settlement price of the current day and the settlement price of the previous trading day shall be calculated.

For unilateral 80 yuan, the customer's account is as follows:

Profit and loss of liquidation on that day =(5050-5000)×5×300 = 75000 yuan.

Profit and loss of opening positions on that day = (5030-5000) × (10-5 )× 300 = 45,000 yuan.

Profit and loss of the day

= 75,000+45,000 =120,000 yuan

Handling fee = 80 yuan × 15= 1200 yuan.

Japanese right = 5 million+120,000-1, 200 = 5 1 18800 yuan.

Margin occupation = 5030× 5× 300× 8% = 603,600 yuan (note: after profit and loss settlement, the margin is calculated according to the settlement price of the day instead of the opening price).

Fund balance (i.e. tradable funds) = 5 1 1.88 million-603,600 = 45 1.52 million yuan.
