Avoiding and Managing Margin Calls Trading on margin offers a variety of potential benefits, as well as some additional risks, including margin calls. This lesson explains margin calls, your obligations, and what you can do to help avoid them. A margin call is a demand from your brokerage firm to increase the amount of equity in your account. You can do this by depositing cash or marginable securities to your account or by liquidating existing positions to generate cash. To avoid margin calls, you need to understand fully what triggers a margin call, along with the steps you can take to minimize the risk of a margin sellout. Margin calls can be a stressful experience with serious financial implications. Your brokerage firm may sell securities you own—without notifying you and without regard to tax consequences—in order to increase the equity in your account. Therefore, consider these suggestions to minimize the odds of experiencing a margin call: Prepare for volatility: Leave a considerable cash cushion in your account that protects you from a sudden drop in the value of your loan collateral. Set a personal trigger point: Keep additional liquid resources at the ready in case you need to add money or securities to your margin account. Monitor your account daily: Consider setting up alerts to notify you when the value of your positions declines significantly. If you fail to understand the concept of margin or not knowing what to do when faced with a margin call from your broker, you will definitely experience the shock of your trading account blow up.

SasanSeifi 💁‍♂️LINKUSDT /LONG VIEW 👉3D ⏭$8.50/$9.50 ⬆ Hello everyone ✌ As you can see, in the long-term of 3 days, the overall trend is fluctuating between $5.34 and $9.50.Currently, the price is trading in the range of 7.50 and it is above the EMA 60 range. . Considering the behavior of the candles and the breaking of the dynamic resistance, we can expect that the price will continue to grow up to the range of $9.50 if it stabilizes. Possible trends are indicated on the chart. Keep in mind that for a positive trend scenario, it is very important to stabilize the price above the $8 range. The important support range is $7/ $6.35. ❎ (DYOR)...⚠⚜ What do you think about this analysis? I will be glad to know your idea 🙂✌ IF you like my analysis please LIKE and comment 🙏✌

AUD/JPY Short• If price pushes up to and ideally just above our area of value, then regardless of how it does so I'll be waiting for a convincing impulse back down followed by a tight flag and then I'll be looking to get short with either a reduced risk entry on the break of the flag or a risk entry within it. • If my entry requirements are not met then I will simply wait until another setup which meets my plan materialises. • If there's any ambiguity then I will not place a trade on this pair.
