What Is A Margin Call, How Can I Avoid It?

A margin call is a request from a broker for an investor to add more money or securities to their margin account because the value of the account has fallen below the maintenance margin.

There are several ways to avoid a margin call including maintaining a high level of equity in your account, using stop-loss orders or simply monitoring the status of your trade closely to avoid dropping beneath the maintenance margin.

How Is Forex Margin Calculated

What is Forex Margin Calculator and how does it work?

The margin requirement is usually expressed as a percentage of the total position size and is determined by the broker.

The formula for calculating margin is:

Margin = (Position size / Leverage) * Account currency exchange rate


Here is an example of how margin is calculated:

Let's say you want to buy 1,000 shares of a stock trading at $50 per share. The total cost of the position would be 1,000 x $50 = $50,000.

If the broker requires a margin of 10%, you would need to deposit 10% of the total cost of the position as margin, which is $5,000. This means that you could control a $50,000 position with a margin of just $5,000.)
