MetaTrader 4 Margin Requirement (FX)
Calculate Required Margin Margin required is affected by changes in the market rate. For non-dollar based currency pairs the margin required will be converted into U.S. Dollars at the prevailing market price for that pair. For example, the margin required to place a trade of GBP 100,000 should not be, and is not, the same as the margin needed for a trade of US$100,000. Example #1 (U.S. Dollar based currency pair): A client places a trade to buy USD/JPY 100,000 at 125.00, with USD/JPY trading at 124.97 / 125.00. Leverage selected on the account is 100:1. The required margin = USD100,000(base currency) / 100 = $1,000 USD. Formula for U.S. Dollar based currency pair: Example #2 (Non U.S. Dollar based currency pair): A client places a trade to buy EUR/USD 100,000 at 1.3200, with EUR/USD trading at 1.3197 / 1.3200. Leverage selected on the account is 100:1. The required margin = EUR100,000(base currency) / 100 x 1.3200 = $1,3200 USD. Formula for Non U.S. Dollar based currency pair: |
