Initial Margin Explained
As low as $500 daytrade margins and exchange margin minimums for position trades. Clients qualify for daytrade margins as long as they are flat at the close of the market, otherwise clients must have the exchange margin to hold a position past the close.
Trading Futures, Options on Futures, and retail off-exchange foreign currency transactions involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. You should carefully consider whether trading is suitable for you in light of your circumstances, knowledge, and financial resources. You may lose all or more of your initial investment.
