A good indicator of a healthy trading account is making sure that your Margin Level is always above 100%.

Margin Call is a notification you receive when your margin percentage actually reaches 100% and is endangering your account.

In order to avoid wiping out your trading account, you can:

  • Add funds to your account

  • Close some of your open trades at the current loss

  • Hedging (Hedging is where you open a position that goes against a current open position).

❗️If your margin % decreases to 50% you will have a Stop Out
