Required margin calculator

Margin locked up to open a position at your leverage.

Required margin

$22

Notional value

$11,000

How it's calculated

Notional value is lots multiplied by contract size multiplied by price. Required margin is that notional divided by the leverage. At 1:500, a 0.1-lot EURUSD position at 1.10 (notional $11,000) locks up $22.
