DI1 TAS – Tick Size Reduction

Optional

Improvement to the DI1 trading spread at the settlement price via TAS

B3 reduces the tick size for all DI1 TAS maturities to 0.001%.

Implemented by B3 at the end of 2022, the structured transaction of DI Futures Trade at Settlement (DIT) allows trading DI Futures (DI1) at the settlement price + spread during almost all trading hours (between 9:00 am and 4:20 pm).

Currently, TAS has the same characteristics as DI Futures including tick size.

With the improvement B3 is implementing, the tick size for all DI1 TAS maturities will be reduced to 0.001%, making the product more attractive and providing better results and spreads when trading DI Futures at the settlement price via TAS.

The DI1 TAS is a structured strategy that allows trading DI futures at the settlement price + spread in a simplified manner. It is possible to trade DI1 at the settlement price via TAS or by tracking the price through DI1 price formation. Currently, institutions prefer to execute this trade through price formation, since they can obtain smaller spreads than by trading via TAS. Therefore, we are reducing the DI1 tick size to make it more attractive.
