How to view the Margin Ratio of a stock

How to Check the Stock's Margin Ratio?

The financing margin ratio can be viewed in detail on the Individual Stock Details page-Financing Information page:

1. Select an individual stock

2. On the top right corner, click the little icon with "$"

3. Select "Marginable"

Margin Ratio

Initial Margin Ratio

Taking financing purchase as an example, if you want to buy a stock with a market value of USD$1 million when the initial margin rate of the stock is 100%, you will need USD$1 million (corresponding to 1 times leverage) to open a position. But if the initial margin rate is 80%, you will only need USD$800,000 to open a position and the remaining USD$200,000 will be the amount you borrow from M+ Global (equivalent to 1.25 times leverage).

Maintenance Margin Ratio

The maintenance margin ratio is the minimum margin ratio that you must maintain in your margin account if you want to continue holding a particular stock.
