If you are trading Forex pairs when USD is NOT the quoted currency (EURCHF, EURGBP, GBPAUD), 1 Lot for 1 pip is in the respective quoted currency. 10 CHF is US$10.30 | 10 GBP is US$13.07 | 10 AUD is US$7.48 |
A. Margin Level Percentage = Equity / Margin Used * 100%
For Example: If you have an equity of US$5,000 with margin used of US$1,000 on 1 Lot of USDCAD,
When your account falls by -US$3,500 (350 pips), your equity will be at US$1,500 which is 150% of your margin used. This is where you get an alert on your platform or Margin Call.
When your account falls by -US$4,000 (400 pips), your equity will be at US$1,000 which is 100% of your margin used. This is where you get Stopped Out. Should you have more than one open positions, the one with the largest loss will be closed off first.
Please note that it is your responsibility to monitor your account margin utilization and open positions so as to prevent getting stopped out. Take immediate actions by depositing into your account when you are having a Margin Call to prevent it from being Stopped Out.
