Help CenterMargin is the minimum amount required that a trader must have in their account to open a position. As your balance increase or decreases so will the ability to trade a number of contracts. We provide the original starting balance but we ARE NOT REQUIRED to maintain any minimum or maximum number of contracts. Should you experience loss, the number of contracts you can open would be reduced. As you profit, the number of contracts you can open will be increased. During high volatility times and at the brokers discretion margin requirements may be increased due to risk increases in the market.
Please see the table below for your product and the margin requirement. Please be aware that you are only permitted to carry a open position from session to session providing you have the required Overnight Margin in your account.
