What is a Margin Call?

Created by Christie Chrisostomou, Modified on Thu, 31 Jul at 10:40 AM by Junsuda Chaiwunna

A good indicator of a healthy trading account is making sure that your Margin Level is always above 100%.

 

Margin Call is a notification you receive when your margin percentage actually reaches 100% and is endangering your account.

 

 

 

In order to avoid wiping out your trading account, you can:

  • Add funds to your account

  • Close some of your open trades at the current loss

  • Hedging (Hedging is where you open a position that goes against a current open position).

❗️If your margin % decreases to 30% you will have a Stop Out.
