Accounts and access
Sections ↑Itaú Corretora’s futures account combines bank-linked investing with explicit intraday-to-swing cut-offs. A WDO position still open at the published 18:00 scenario change becomes a swing position and needs recalculated collateral. Digital RLP brokerage discounts, forced-close charges and risk-limit alerts are separate parts of the operating model.[3]

| Agricultural / commodity | BGI, ETH, CCM, SJC and GLDSource 3 |

WDO mini-dollar contract specification
| Feature | B3 contract rule |
|---|---|
| Underlying | BRL per US dollar commercial exchange rateSource 1 |
| Contract size | USD 10,000 of notional exposureSource 1 |
| Quote convention | BRL per USD 1,000; a quoted 5,000.0 corresponds to BRL 5.0000 per USDSource 1 |
| Minimum tick | 0.50 quotation point = R$5 per contractSource 1 |
| One quotation point | R$10 per contract; 100 points = R$1,000Source 1 |
| Trading lot | One contractSource 1 |
| Expiry | First business day of the expiry month; trading ends in the preceding sessionSource 1 |
| Settlement | Financial settlement; a futures position does not deliver a withdrawable USD balanceSource 1 |
The contract size is much larger than the cash posted as margin. A 14-point adverse move in one WDO contract equals R$140 before costs. That arithmetic does not mean the broker must close the position at R$140, or that losses cannot exceed the collateral.[1][2]

B3 publishes a R$140 minimum intraday margin for WDO. It is an exchange floor, not a promise that every account can trade with R$140. The broker’s live requirement, available guarantees, pending orders and any switch to an overnight position determine actual capacity.[2]
