Mentioned securities account held derivatives also. Derivatives are especially futures, options and ETF funds that invest a substantial portion of its own assets in futures and options. Furthermore, the work describe how it is possible in the forensic practice prove the "control of trader over customer account". It is also discussed the issue of calculation of indicators (esp. Cost to Equity) and the absence of clear algorithms that describe how the calculations of indicators of churning should be done and not only for portfolios (client accounts) containing derivatives. Special attention is paid to the determination of the size of property damage (loss) calculation by churning to the client.
