Moomoo Financial Singapore Pte. Ltd. further breaks margin into Initial Margin, Margin Call Margin, and Maintenance Margin.
The initial margin is the amount clients must deposit to open a futures position. Only when buying power is greater than the initial margin requirement, a futures position can be opened.
The margin call is triggered when a client's equity with loan value (ELV) falls below the margin call margin due to market fluctuations. Moomoo Financial Singapore Pte. Ltd. will issue a margin call notice to the client, and the client must choose to either deposit more money or sell some of the assets held in the account in 48 hours. Otherwise, Moomoo Financial Singapore Pte. Ltd. reserves the right to liquidate the client's position directly without prior notice.
The maintenance margin is the minimum amount of equity clients must maintain in their account. When a client's ELV falls below the Maintenance Margin due to market fluctuations, Moomoo Financial Singapore Pte. Ltd. reserves the right to liquidate the client's position directly without prior notice.
