margin used on trade

[nirv]

Hi. Is it possible to see how much margin is used on a particular trade. Using the formula on the site my margin should be way less. Do orders not yet filled contribute to margin.

Thanks

Hi, you can see how much margin is needed to open the trade on the deal/order ticket, once the trade is open how much margin is used and how much is still available is displayed in the top row. I think pending orders do have the margin amount subtracted but not sure.

I think the question was more along the lines of: once multiple trades are opened can one see the breakdown of margin used per trade, it is obvious that the margin is showed in aggregate at the top. I assume it is not possible to see the breakdown for all opened trades.

If you select any individual position, and press 'close' , it will show you the margin amount. You dont have to continue and close the position if not required
