Problem Note 48770: Possibility of incorrect results when using Holding in a pricing method and including trading in the project

DetailsAboutRate It

In SAS® Risk Dimensions®, if a pricing method references the Holding variable and the project includes trading, then the holding value in the method and the holding adjustment after pricing might use inconsistent values.

When this problem occurs, a message similar to the following is generated:

WARNING: The project indicates to run a trading method on the position "my_instid"
which uses the pricing method "my_pricing_method." This method references the variable
HOLDING and might produce incorrect values.
The workaround is to avoid referencing the Holding variable in a pricing method, when the project includes trading.
