  27. I cannot open a position. The terminal says "Not enough money». How can I calculate the amount needed to open a position?

    At the opening of the transaction you should take into account the amount of collateral (margin), which is blocked in the account to maintain an open transaction. After closing, the amount of the margin is released and becomes available for further trade. The margin amount depends on the leverage, the position volume and the currency pair for which it is opened.

    The formula for calculating the margin: Number of lots * 100 000 / Leverage
    100,000 is the amount of currency equivalent to 1 lot
    If the base (first) currency in a currency pair is different from the currency of the deposit, the amount should be converted into the deposit currency at the current exchange rate.
