Daily mark to market

Repricing open oil positions each day to current market levels; gains/losses settled via margin.

Daily mark to market is the process of revaluing open oil trading positions at current market prices at the end of each trading day. Gains and losses are realized through margin adjustments, ensuring that exposures remain collateralized. This process reduces counterparty risk and enforces financial discipline. For traders, mark-to-market results affect cash flow, risk limits, and performance reporting. Large adverse moves can trigger margin calls, requiring rapid liquidity management. Daily mark to market is a foundational mechanism of futures and cleared derivatives markets and shapes day-to-day trading behavior.
