Forex Margin Calculation in MT4 Examples

  • If = 50:1 - Leverage

Then forex margin requirement = 1/50 *100= 2 percent

If you have got $1,000 dollars,

1,000* 50 = $50,000.

1,000 / 50,000 * 100= 2 percent

Simplify it like this: your funds are $1,000. After gearing, you control $50,000. So $1,000 is 2% of $50,000. That sets your forex margin need.

  • If = 20:1 - Leverage

Then the forex margin requirement = 1/20 *100= 5%

If you have got $1,000 dollars,

1,000* 20 = $20,000.

1,000 / 20,000 * 100= 5 %

Step 2: Double-click the Williams Percentage Range button. Click OK to add and set the indicator on the chart, as shown below.

  • If = 10:1 - Leverage

Then the fx margin requirement is = 1/10 *100= 10%

If you have got $1,000 dollars,

1,000* 10 = $10,000.

1,000 / 10,000 * 100= 10 %

Your forex margin requirement is 10% since you have $1,000 after gearing, and you are in charge of $10,000. (Simplify - your funds is $1,000 after gearing you control $10,000 - what percentage of $10,000 is $1,000? )
