It takes fairly a motive for an trade just like the LME to delay its open. If I used to be, say, quick a number of gold contracts and requested the trade to delay open whereas I scrambled to supply margin they’d chuckle at me. However, if I used to be a whale …. properly, possibly they’d be extra accommodating. Simply spitballing right here.
