Forex Margin Calculator
This calculator helps you determine the required margin to open a trading position, based on your lot size, leverage, and currency pair. Stay safe, trade smart.
How Does This Calculator Help You?
The Forex Margin Calculator helps you determine the minimum deposit (margin) you need to maintain your open positions. With leverage, traders can control larger trades with smaller capital, but that also increases risk. This tool ensures that you are aware of the exact amount required based on your lot size, currency pair price, and leverage level.
Let’s say you want to open a 1 lot EUR/USD trade with 1:100 leverage and the current rate is 1.10. The required margin would be calculated using:
Required Margin = (Lot Size × Contract Size × Price) / Leverage
In this case: (1 × 100,000 × 1.10) / 100 = $1,100
This calculator is essential for traders who wish to manage capital wisely, avoid margin calls, and stay in control of their trading account.
