However, if you change the leverage to 50 to 1, you can buy up to 50 [DJI30] using $20,000. In the same way, you can buy up to 500 [DJI30] with $20,000 using 500 to 1 leverage.
Margin Call
Using 10 to 1 leverage, your required margin to buy 1 share of [DJI30] at $20,000 is $2,000 ($20,000 * 1* 1/10). At all times, your account balance should be able to cover the required margin, regardless of market volatility. If your account balance falls below 100% of the required margin, you will get a margin call. In this case, you must deposit more funds or increase your leverage. If your account balance ever falls below 50% of the required margin, your open position will be forced to close by the system.
