(If there is a change in the日中 balance and a new position is taken, before NY close we will confirm and move the new position to an overnight position, and settle the initial position. If the new position is canceled during the day, the initial position up to that point remains. Therefore, when a new position arises due to changes in the 日中 balance, it will be a hedge against the initial position, and if that new position is canceled, there may be a loss)

We are considering migrating from GogoJiang to another medium.
