Position Limits
Compliance with position limits is essential for firms trading exchange-traded derivatives, whether set by exchanges or regulations like Dodd-Frank and MiFID II. BroadPeak makes this manageable with continuous calculations, breach alerts, and an intuitive dashboard that delivers immediate, actionable insight to stay compliant and in control.


Good enough is not enough
Limits under control

Compliance confidence
Measure positions the same way regulators and exchanges do, ensuring accurate, consistent compliance across multiple regulatory regimes. Minimize the risk of breaches, avoid costly fines, and give your team confidence in every trade.

Accurate current data
Most systems rely on static reference tables or manual processes to manage position limits reference data. BroadPeak takes a different approach. We automatically ingest and update authoritative limit data directly from exchanges and venues in near real time.

Effortless integration
BroadPeak connects directly to FCMs, E/CTRMs, and exchanges to capture trade data at source. We manage the complexity of the entire 'trade data supply chain', normalizing and aggregating data across formats and systems to ensure consistency and accuracy.

Dynamic alerts
Get instant notifications alerts on your positions vs limits by accessing your data via our web interface or customizable desktop reports, compatible with any BI tool. Access additional insights like real-time position vs. open interest using our comprehensive data set.
Meet Atlas
Data you trust
Atlas is the reference data engine behind BroadPeak’s position limits. It includes an API that facilitates querying a database containing published limits from global exchanges and regulatory body.
Precision across instruments
Built-in logic for calculating expiration periods and rules for decomposing products into top-level products ensures limits are calculated and applied accurately across even the most complex instruments.
Always current
Nightly automatic updates from global exchanges and regulators keep your limit’s database accurate so you can rely on current data.
Real-time compliance
We do not estimate or simulate limits; we use real, up-to-date limits published by each exchange. Atlas ingests this data and applies it to your trades in real time, ensuring your positions are always aligned with regulatory expectations.
Built for scale
Atlas ingests millions of live data points daily, capturing real-time updates from global exchanges. With around 2 million position limit records processed each day, you’re always working with the most current, accurate information.
Transparency and control
BroadPeak retrieves comprehensive limit reference data, including product limits, aggregation ratios, and option deltas, directly from the Atlas API for accurate, real-time compliance monitoring.


Logic behind every limit
Limits made clear
Delivering clarity around complex position limits logic so you can trust your exposure is accurate and compliant.
Diminishing factors
Certain contracts decrease in position value as the spot month approaches. Our solution adjusts for these dynamic changes to accurately reflect how positions count toward the overall limit.
Parent-child grouping
Exchanges frequently group related instruments when setting limits e.g., a parent product like crude oil may include child products such as specific grades or spreads. We accurately aggregate these groupings to mirror the exchange’s view of total exposure.
Futures equivalent position
Many option positions are not just about counting contracts, they are delta-based. We unify futures and options into a single delta calculation to ensure accurate exposure measurement and compliance with exchange rules.

Protect your reputation and bottom line
Maximize opportunities
Take control of your trading limits with real-time, accurate position measurement powered by seamless connectivity to E/CTRMs and exchanges. Stay compliant across multiple regulatory regimes and exchanges, without the manual effort or guesswork.

Built for what matters
Actionable data
Streamline and standardize position limits with a solution that delivers accurate calculations, reliable data, and automated workflows.
How can I ensure my position limits match regulator and exchange definitions?
Position limits are often expressed using an exchange-defined delta, which can differ from your internal risk calculations. We ensure your compliance by measuring your positions exactly as regulators and exchanges do, aligning your calculations with official standards for accurate, consistent monitoring.
How can we be sure our data is reliable for compliance and risk reporting?
Whether for regulatory compliance, risk analysis, or feeding downstream BI tools, we ensure that the data driving your decisions is complete, validated, and aligned across the enterprise. It’s the trust layer your business needs to operate with confidence, no manual stitching, no second-guessing.
How does BroadPeak reduce manual processes and improve visibility?
BroadPeak automates daily limit data ingestion from exchanges and regulators, centralizing it in a single, accessible database. It converts complex legal terms e.g. spot start dates into actionable calendars, improving forward visibility. With task automation and a reconciliation module, it cuts manual effort and reduces risk.
How does BroadPeak support enterprise-wide reporting and analysis?
BroadPeak offers customizable reporting that can be easily distributed across your organization. Business intelligence teams can leverage our clean, centralized data store to explore insights beyond core limits monitoring to support broader analysis, compliance, and strategic decision-making.
How can teams access limits reference data in BroadPeak?
All limit’s reference data is easily accessible online through a mobile-friendly interface, in Excel for familiar workflows, or via API for seamless integration into internal systems and tools.
