Basic Mechanics of FXMargining
Margin is a term derived from the futures market, and provides for leveraged trading in financial products. In its most simple format, if you offered the trading of an instrument at 6% margin, in effect you need only to deposit 6% of the total purchase cost of that deal to open that position.
