caution is the Margin you trade at..that means if you are buying 20,000 euros worth of stockm, for example, you only need to put up, say, 8,000 euros. However, if you buy the stock and there is a loss, you get a margin call. ie you have to pay up the rest.
that\'s what a caution is; a margin

Marchés here means a contract..a futures contract..or a commodities contract...non levees means that it is open and a l\'échéance means unexpired..

change based on new information:
Deposits on Active Contracts (Expired) is the style I would use, rather than
Deposits on Active, Expired Contracts which is not elegant..
in other words, they are still shipping product because they have deposits on contracts that are still open though the contract expiration date has come and gone. That is how I understand it.

Deposits on Expired Contracts
Look if this is under income, there is no need to say it any differently than: Deposits on Expired Contracts (unrecorded as income]

I'd give you 100 points if I could - deadlines are tight, we have nothing in the fridge, my kids have come back from school with nits, and tackling this last sentence before signing out for the night was just all too much - thank you sooo much!!! 4 KudoZ points were awarded for this answer
Blimey, Jane, I really appreciate all this - I don't normally do financial very much, and now I know why!!! Thanks so much for helping me out, and it does all make a kind of sense - you're fantastic!!
OK..lever une caution..would be to actually put the money of the deposits under income..here the deposits are there but not cashed in so to speak..even though the contracts are expired.just not sure if one says cash in a deposits..recorded as income?
Of course it helps. these are real contracts with deposits. I thought it was futures. See how the same language in French is different in English? I will change my answer...
The company is one for 'automatic door systems' (!) - don't know if that really helps at all!! They go on to show a table with another subheading: 'cautions clients' and give a list of customers with sums owed!! - thanks so much for your help!!
