Margin requirements determine how much equity must be maintained in the account to open and hold positions using margin. They may affect how and when you can borrow, the type of deposits or equity required, and the level of funds that must be maintained in the account.
If the account does not meet the applicable margin requirements, it may become subject to liquidation. IBKR generally does not issue traditional margin calls; if an account falls into a margin deficiency, positions may be liquidated automatically in real time to bring the account back into margin compliance.
Margin requirements may vary depending on the client’s country of legal residence, account type, margin methodology, exchange, product, instrument, volatility, liquidity, concentration, and applicable house margin requirements.
