What is Position Reporting?

Modified on Wed, 24 Jun at 7:27 PM

Introduction

Position Reporting gives you a real-time view of your grain market exposure how much you have bought, sold, and still open at any point in time, across commodities, grades, seasons, and counterparties.

Why it matters?

  • See your net physical position purchases minus sales at a glance.

  • Understand how financial (futures) contracts offset your physical exposure.

  • Identify commodities or seasons where you are most exposed before the market moves.

  • Drill into the underlying contracts behind any position number without leaving the report.


What is included in the position?


The position report draws from three sources:

  • Physical contracts all active buy and sell contracts (planned, voided, rejected, template, confirmation-pending and paid contracts are automatically excluded).

  • Stock (NGRs) grain held in storage, where the NGR has been enabled for position reporting by your account administrator.

  • Financial contracts futures or other financial instruments linked to your physical trades.


Important: Contracts where you have been fully delivered (position = zero) are automatically hidden from the report. If you expect to see a contract and cannot find it, check whether it has been fully fulfilled.
