That was my last deal in demo account
Start Balance 2500 USD
Buy EURUSD 400 000 for 1,2074
Margin Call 1,2061 --> loss 520 USD
Final Balance 1980
Question - why did Margin Call begin after only -520 USD which is only 20% of balance? |

Margin requirements for 10 000 base currency position are $50
So for 400 000 base currency position margin requirements are $2 000. Your position was closed automatically after you free margin (2500 - 2000) has drop to zero.
Please dont trade volumes that you can’t maintain do to lack of deposit. |
