Half margin is only for hedged positions.

Available margin is how much margin do you have to keep opening trades or playing with your loses.

Hedge plays with position margin.

1 Lot Buy. Margin $50
1 Lot Sell. Margin $50
Total margin 100

1 Lot Buy. Margin $50.
Sell is Buy Hedge.
Total Margin 50

Hi all,

Is there any indicators to hedge instead of putting stopp-loss when the trend goes down 20 or 30 pips after opening a trade? is it possible? or should i searh as a EA ?

Hi, just a short question, for the hedged margin to work does the buy an sell have to be opened at the same price or does the broker allows several different buys and sells at different prices and calculates the margin only for the net result? Thank you!!!
