مارجین call and stop out are the broker's mechanisms for protecting itself when an هەژمار approaches insolvency. They will protect تۆ too — but only if تۆ understand how they trigger.
Key مەرجەکان
- ئیکویتی: balance + کردنەوە قازانج/زیان.
- Used margin: margin locked by کردنەوە positions.
- بەخۆڕایی margin: equity − used margin.
- مارجین ئاست (%): equity / used margin × 100.
مارجین call ئاست
The broker-defined margin ئاست (e.g. 100%, 80%, 50%) at which تۆ are warned. Some بڕۆکەرەکان prevent نوێ positions at this ئاست.
Stop out ئاست
The lower threshold (e.g. 50%, 30%, 20%) at which the broker forcibly closes positions, starting with the most-losing one, until margin ئاست is restored.
Worked example
هەژمار: $1,000. بکەرەوە one trade requiring $200 margin. Position floats at -$700. ئیکویتی = $300. مارجین ئاست = 300/200 × 100 = 150%. Still above 100% margin call. If position floats further to -$900, equity = $100. مارجین ئاست = 100/200 × 100 = 50%. Stop out triggered (at typical 50%); broker closes the position.
How to avoid stop-outs
- بەکارهێنان stop-loss orders sized so the trade can lose your planned risk before stop-out.
- Don't hold کردنەوە trades through بەرز-impact news on thin margin.
- Reduce position size if margin ئاست approaches the call threshold.
