Reservations and Concurrent Risk

Status Draft briefPart Risk and Operations

Two orders checked against the same stale capacity can jointly exceed a limit. Reservations turn accepted intent into exposure before final venue outcomes arrive.

Central questions

  • When is risk capacity reserved, converted, released, or corrected?
  • Which concurrent operation owns each transition?
  • How are rejects, partial fills, cancels, and timeouts reconciled?

Planned model

Race several orders for the last available capacity and compare naive check-then-send with atomic reservation and event-driven release.
