Due to recent increased market volatility and significant global market declines on Monday, we urge all investors to closely monitor their options account status.

Important Notes:

  1. Increased Risk Due to Market Volatility:
    Market fluctuations have significantly raised margin requirements for option sellers' accounts.

  2. Urgent Review of Margin Status:
    Option sellers are strongly advised to carefully examine their option positions and maintenance margin levels. Please ensure your account has sufficient funds to meet current margin requirements.

  3. Risk of Margin Calls:
    If your account margin falls below the maintenance requirement, you may receive a margin call. To avoid forced liquidation, please promptly add funds or take other risk management measures.

  4. Potential Forced Liquidation Risk:
    If account funds consistently fail to meet margin requirements, positions may be forcibly liquidated according to risk control policies to manage risk.

  5. Proactive Risk Management:
    Consider the following measures to manage risk:

    • Appropriately reduce high-risk positions

    • Promptly add funds to your account

    • Adjust option strategies to lower margin requirements

  6. Customer Support:
    If you have any questions about your account status or need assistance, please contact our customer service team at any time. We are committed to providing you with support and advice.

Staying vigilant and proactively managing risk is crucial during this period of market volatility.
