    Leverage Calculation

    Anyone have any idea what the standard is for reporting leverage on financial futures - specifically swap/STIR/OIS related ones like Eurodollars and Fed Funds futures? If you are long/short a Eurodollar contract that expires in Dec 11, it seems absurd to think of it as $1MM of risk, is that...
