Margin Calculator
Forex Margin Calculator
A Forex Margin Calculator is a tool that shows how much margin is required to open and maintain a trading position. Margin is essentially the amount of money a broker sets aside from your account balance to keep a trade active, based on the trade size, the leverage you use, and the currency pair being traded. By entering these details, the calculator tells you the exact margin requirement in your account currency.
For example, if you want to trade one lot of EUR/USD (100,000 units) with leverage of 1:100, the required margin is about $1,000. With leverage of 1:50, the same trade would need $2,000 margin. This helps traders immediately see how much of their balance will be tied up and whether they have sufficient free margin to open new trades. Traders use a margin calculator to plan position sizes properly, avoid margin calls, and ensure they aren’t over-leveraging their accounts. In short, it answers the question: “How much margin will my trade require, and do I have enough funds to cover it?”
