Why was my trade rejected due to insufficient margin?

This error means your account does not have enough Free Margin to open the requested position size.

To resolve this:

  1. Reduce Lot Size: Open a smaller position to require less margin.
  2. Deposit Funds: Add more capital to increase your available margin.
  3. Close Existing Trades: Closing other positions releases their locked margin, freeing up space for new trades.

Check your status:

  • Go to the Terminal or CRM Dashboard.
  • Look at the Margin Level percentage.
  • If it is below 100%, you cannot open new trades.

Note: High leverage accounts require less margin per lot, but also carry higher risk.
