In DA, entity purchases PTP obligation on the right side to left side of bus (both breakers are closed), then they will clear at zero. Then in real time and unit is not running (then breaker is open) so ERCOT utilizes one of the 3 rules which creates a different spread between the right and left hand side of the bus. Entity makes money off that spread. ERCOT says there is huge activity. ERCOT does not see a short term fix on this.
