Market-Clearing and Leverage Sample Clauses

Market-Clearing and Leverage. An important and unusual feature of cryptocurrency derivative markets is very high leverage. We can see the connection between leverage, the crypto-carry trade perfor- xxxxx, and its implied statement about long-side demand from a change in Binance’s leverage policy. In the early portion of our sample Binance’s maximum leverage was 125x (an α = 0.008). On 2021-07-23, Binance made several changes related to lever- age. In particular, maximum leverage was reduced to 50x. There were also stricter leverage maximums for newly created accounts and new educational material targeted towards smaller traders.17 We can use our model to understand the potential impact of a change in leverage. As we will see, the change in leverage policy only has an impact if the exchange’s leverage constraint is binding. In this setting, the beliefs about mean future spot prices are µb < 0 < µa. So b traders are short and a traders are long. Since we have assumed the contract price is pinned to the spot price, Ft = Pt, the funding rate r adjusts so the aggregate demand of longs and shorts is equal: wanl + wbns = 0 (the futures market is zero-net supply). For illustration, we treat the Tether and coin-based contracts separately and then compare their equilibrium outcomes. Some numerical illustrations are in Figure 9. For context, think of BTC with log F1 ∼ N (µ, σ) setting and σ = 0.0203 – an 8-hour volatility (equivalent to a 0.6729 per year). This is calibrated to observed volatility in our sample. The traders beliefs are aggressive, with µa = 0.02 and µb = −0.01, but they are risk averse with a relative risk aversion of 7.5.18
