Eurex Account Type

　　Eurex offers several types of accounts for trading participants, including:

• 　　Agent Accounts (A1 - A9): These accounts are used exclusively for clients and are maintained on a gross basis. Traders can have both long and short positions in the same account unless designated as closing transactions.

• 　　Proprietary Accounts (P1, P2): These accounts are used for trades made for the participant's own account and are also maintained on a gross basis. Participants have full discretion over which account to use for opening positions, but close-outs must be directed to the same account.

• 　　Market Maker Accounts (M1, M2): These accounts are for trades made for the participant's own account, with quotes automatically booked on the M1 account. Market maker accounts are kept on a net basis.

• 　　Give-Up Accounts (G1, G2): G1 is a pre-designated give-up account without a specified receiving clearing member, while G2 is a designated give-up account with a specified clearing member ID.

　　Each account type serves different trading purposes and is subject to specific rules and regulations, such as naming conventions and operational requirements.
