Timing & risk management for overnight and weekend margin requirements
- Overnight and weekend margin requirements take effect 10 minutes before the respective market close and will remain in force overnight or through the weekend, as applicable. Clients are responsible for monitoring the market close times for the instruments they trade.
- If you plan to hold positions overnight or over the weekend, please ensure that you have sufficient funds in your account to maintain your positions. Insufficient margin will result in the system automatically closing positions, starting with the largest losing trades.
- If you are using high leverage, we strongly recommend reviewing your account free margin and open positions before the close of each trading day to ensure your positions are not at risk of being liquidated.
