B. make the market.
C. make a new market.
1.Answer:B
【解析】:
當(dāng)前的市場價格是25美元,你擁有10000美元的自有資金可用于投資,向經(jīng)紀(jì)商借入10000美元,于是總的投資額達(dá)到20000美元,購買了800股,維持*金比率是30%,也就是如果價格發(fā)生變動,當(dāng)投資者的所有者權(quán)益與持有的股票的總市值之比為30%時,會收到追加*金通知,公式為[(P1×Q) - Margin loan] /(P1×Q),計(jì)算可得P1=$17.86。
2.Answer:A
【解析】:
當(dāng)前的市場情況為:買價是54.62美元,賣價是54.71美元,一個新的限價賣單(54.62$)進(jìn)入市場,可以看到這個賣單可以立馬成交,所以是take the market。
區(qū)分take the market、make the market以及make the new market*的辦法就是直接畫圖,建議以國內(nèi)常見的賣價在上買價在下為準(zhǔn),然后觀察新的指令單進(jìn)入市場以后是與己方的*報價相同、比己方的當(dāng)前*報價更優(yōu)從而成為新的己方*報價還是直接可以成交,三種情況分別對應(yīng)make the market、make a new market以及take the mark
