Trading gold accounting – monitor risk

Bank monitor margin to lock/release cash. If no more cash avaible , bank will warning user. If margin too low, bank will auto-close the trade to return loan.

Equity = Asset – Debt
Equity = Asset0 + Cash – Debt
Equity – Cash = Asset0  – Debt = Margin

%Margin = (Equity-Cash)/Asset0 (current locked margin)

%ExtendMargin = Equity/Asset0 (extensible margin)

Cash0 (free cash) = Equity – Asset0*Fix_Margin%

Bank monitor free cash if it =0, users have not enough cash to maintain their position.

Deadlock,  Inconsistent, Low performance

The platform require bank lock user money before accept/execute orders, but the bank require platform provide market price before it process orders -> easy to death lock, inconsistent. If we avoid from deadlock and inconsistent, we must accept low performance. The platform should not process any order  before bank finish its job.
