What is hedged margin?

Estimated reading: 1 minute 216 views

“Hedged margin” is the capital required to open and maintain an open, locked (hedged) position. In other words, it is the guarantee that is required to maintain an open locked position.

Here we point to an example:

If the hedge margin is indicated at 50% for a symbol, it means that the broker will take the margin only from one hedged (locked) position. Assume that you open 1 lot buy on EURUSD and the required margin for that position is 100 USD. Then you open 1 lot sell on the same pair, but the margin will not change.
Hedge margin = 50%
1 lot buy = 100 USD
1 lot sell = 100 USD
1 lot buy + 1 lot sell = 100 USD
