Margin Watcher


All account information is updated on a tick-by-tick basis giving traders a complete view of their account activity
  • Real-time margin tracker

Based on each trader's margin requirement, the FX Trading Station will calculate in real time both the funds needed to maintain current positions (used maintenance margin) and the funds available for taking new positions (usable maintenance margin). If the equity in the account drops below the margin required maintaining the open positions, a margin call will occur and some or all open positions may be closed by the dealing desk at the market price. This provides protection against accounts falling below the account equity, particularly in volatile or fast moving markets.
*Leverage is a double-edged sword. Without proper risk management, this high degree of leverage can lead to large losses as well as gains.
