Margin reqjired for the order
24 Sep 2018, 12:22

Dear Panagiotis!

With the invent of 30% leverage it started to be even more important to understand risks and margins.
How can I discover programmatically how much leverage my order volume is going to eat?

Regards

 

Alexander

Hi Alexander,

This indicator is a good starting point https://ctrader.com/algos/indicators/show/924.  However, in order to be more accurate, it should be combined with the Symbol Leverage. In all cases the leverage used is the minimum of the two.

Best Regards,

Panagiotis
