Notes

Minimum block size units when defined as "per transaction" means the sum of the quantities of the legs of the transaction must meet the Minimum Block Size threshold

For a multi-product structure (i.e. Options and Futures) the Options component of the structure must meet the Minimum Block Size threshold for the outright option or option combination. For the Futures component, the quantity of futures executed must be consistent with the delta of the options component of the structure but can be below the Minimum Block Size threshold for outright Futures
