## Delta-1 Margin Parameters

Margin requirements for delta-1 instruments (perpetual futures and dated futures). Dated futures are not listed at V3 launch; their requirements are shown because the configuration exists.

## Spread Margin Parameters

These govern the margin requirements for sub-portfolios with naked short calls and spreads.

| - | - | - | - | - | - | - |
| UNPAIRED\_SCALE\_IM | `option.unpaired_im_scale` | 1.2 | 1.25 | 1.3 | \[1.01, 3.0] | A large percentage of the forward price per "naked" short call per expiry, added to the offset initial margin. |
| UNPAIRED\_SCALE\_MM | `option.unpaired_mm_scale` | 1.1 | 1.2 | 1.25 | \[1.01, 3.0] | As above, for maintenance margin. |

## Collateral Factors

SM expresses collateral credit as a multiplicative **factor**, not a deduction:

```python Formula theme={null}
credit towards MM = value x MM_FACTOR
credit towards IM = value x IM_FACTOR
```

Cells are `IM factor / MM factor`. A dash means the universe does not accept that token.
