FXSol GTS/MT Margin Requirement (Metals)

Margin Requirement Trading Leverage
2% 50:1
1% 100:1
0.5% 200:1
Note: We ask that you consider the risks associated with increasing your leverage. A relatively small market movement will have a proportionately larger impact on the funds you have deposited or will have to deposit, this may work against you as well as for you. You may sustain a total loss of initial margin and you may be required to deposit additional funds to cover a short margin position. Learn more about margin trading risks.

Calculate Required Margin

Margin required is affected by changes in the market rate. For example, the margin required to purchase 1 contract of gold or silver should be the amount of U.S. dollars needed to purchase 1 ounce of gold or silver.

Example #1 (GLD):

A client places a trade to buy 1 contract of GLD (gold), with GLD trading at 600.50 / 600.00. Leverage selected on the account is 200:1.

The required margin = GLD 1 ounce / 200 x $600.00= $3.00 USD.

Formula for GLD (gold):
Required margin = contract size / leverage x bid / ask

†Forex (FX) trading on margin carries a high level of risk and is not suitable for all investors. Forex is traded with a high degree of leverage, which can work for you as well as against you, and it is possible to loss more than you invest. You should only invest funds that you can afford to lose and do not need to support yourself or your family. You should carefully consider all risks involved with forex trading as well as your financial situation, investment objectives, and risk tolerance before investing. Forex is traded over-the-counter (OTC) and not on a regulated Exchange. Market conditions may adversely affect order execution.
