Title: What is call price?
Post by: clayop on November 25, 2014, 12:59:32 am

Does it mean that the short will call the price if it is expired?

No, it is separate from expiration. It means if the feed price goes above the call price and there are no asks in between, the margin order will execute and charge the 5% margin call fee.

I see. It's a kind of 'triggering' price as I understand.

So, when shorts are expired, the price they buy BitUSD is 110% of moving average of price feed?

I don't think the 110% is true anymore. Could be wrong, but when I've seen shorts expire, I've seen them just buy up bitUSD at the best price, all the way up to the price feed.
