By trading on margin, you are essentially taking a loan against your holdings or equity. This means that as your account equity changes, the amount that you can borrow will also change. Our Leverage Schedule is based on the daily starting cash value of your account.
| Starting Cash | Buying Power allotted |

If your Standard Account cash balance falls below $100, your account will be liquidated from any position(s) being held, your trading permissions will be removed and your trading account will be deactivated until the balance is above $100.
Margin trading allows you to borrow against your existing holdings, leveraging them to take additional positions. Capital Markets Elite Group’s rules-based margin requirements place predefined and static calculations that are applied to each position or groups of positions. For your knowledge these rules are listed below. Capital Markets Elite Group urges all clients to be mindful of these requirements when trading. Note that Capital Markets Elite Group reserves the right to modify certain margin policies to adjust for unprecedented volatility and risk in financial markets in order to see that margin accounts remain within the firm’s risk parameters.
We are focused on realistic and forward-looking approaches to risk management. We strongly encourage all clients to monitor this page for updates regarding margin policy changes.
Initial Margin Requirement: 25%
Minimum Equity Requirement: $100
Maintenance margin
A Maintenance Margin of 5% is required for stocks priced at >$1. A client is always required to have at least 5% of the market value of their position as cash to hold the position. A client’s position will be liquidated to cash if they approach or breach this value.
* In the interest of the continued safety of its clients, Capital Markets Elite Group may modify certain margin policies to adjust for unprecedented volatility in financial markets. The changes will promote reduction of leverage in client portfolios and help see that clients’ accounts are appropriately capitalised.
* Accounts that fail to meet the above requirements will be liquidated in its entirety and incur a $25 margin call fee.
* All liquidations are subject to the normal commission schedule and may occur at times that are not opportune.
* Leverage magnifies the results of trading, whether favourable or unfavourable. It can result in losses greater than the amount invested. Capital Markets Elite Group urges all clients to use caution when trading on margin.
