yogeshwartyagi Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 In most of the cases a losing position is automatically closed by the brokers system when such situation arises. But, the FX market is quite volatile, if margin level is low over economic news releases, or under other abnormal conditions, the market can rapidly move against you and the system will close open positions at the next best available price which could in losing the whole deposit or even more than that.

chuna1985 Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Yes it is possible to lose more than you invested in a trade. I think that if you very high lot sizes, you will lose even the money you still have with your broker. It`s the job of a good broker to notify you about such situations and make sure that you don`t make such investments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirwilly Posted December 4, 2010 Share Posted December 4, 2010 Depending on our deposit, leveraging poses risks to the broker. Usually, the broker tries to restrict the leverage to our deposit but often he loses a certain percentage as well, but he could as easily get that back from the spreads. On the other hand, the broker has rules against high leverages on big deposits because this could threaten their own financial strength or reserve.

Â The fact is that brokers always keep their interest on top and usually you are not allowed to hold the position to bear bigger losses than the funds you deposited.

boniez Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 it is impossible if you can lose more than the fund deposited, because there we can't get minus deposit, otherwise your account will be damage margin call. therefore i recommend for you to keep put stop loss, because, stop loss is important to prevent a margin call Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indieover Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 we just need to be careful. just use small leverage if you have only small deposit specially if you are not yet good in trading. and use SL . but i don't know if the broker will not allow us to lose more than what we have deposited.

djfritz Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Currently I am using marketiva, well with this broker I don't think that is possible because they will control once your margin is consumed they will close one of your position automatically to prevent them from losing as well. I don't know with other broker since I have not tried it yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t2t Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 In all business both offline and online it is very possible to lose your capital. But you will be consider a success if you gain more than you lose. And like forex which is a volitile market losing money is very easy. But why not learn forex more before venturing into it? That way you will learn and know how to manage your account. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indieover Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 perhaps you mean is to open with a large lot. because even if you make an investment with very little funding at the recommended to use a highly leveraged basis, to reproduce in an order. but not allowed to use the a larg lot ,because it will only spend your money and margin call   yeah i understand it now. we can't trade a big lot if we don't choose big leverage. so it is the lot that we should avoid using too much. and i use high leverage now of 1:1000. anyways, i don't think it is possible to lose more than what you have deposited. i think our trade will stop automatically if we don't have enough deposit any more to sustain the trade.

andry777 Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 I think that is impossible if we could lose more than we deposited except our account has been filled with free capitals of funds in our balance. If our account is pure from deposit only, that won't happen to lose more than we got. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mownabratadey Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 I am not sure, but some times it can be possible, but every brokers are introducing our principle at zero whenever we loose all, but the truth is it takes negatives balance if we will not stop the trade, I didn't find this kind of event in my trading at all....

andry777 Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 @mowna Oh really? That's weird because if our account in minus balance, we won't use it anymore. It will be better to create new account and we added new funds in there right? So what is the purpose the broker allowed our account to be negatives in balance?

If our account is pure from deposit only, that won't happen to lose more than we got. i am fully agree with you . it never happen to loss more than we deposit if it not credited account by broker . its rediculous how we loss more than we deposit !! that money which we lossing more than our deposit will pay broker !! never happen.

andry777 Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 @Nikhil Yeah, we won't pay to broker if our account in minus condition and that is impossible because as I knew in forex broker, they had rule when is our account could be classified as Margin call. And that is impossible in forex broker if they didn't have rule to tell that our account is margin call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andry777 Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 @matiskater That's really weird statement, off course all traders ever got some losses in trading. We could lose in trading but we won't lose more than we had in our account for sure. That's what I knew, I don't know if there is person who could lose more than his balance in trading.

andry777 Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 @Boniez Oh really?

Really funny and impossible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andry777 Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 @Boniez Oh you used InstaForex too, that was good then. I used that broker too because I could get free capitals to trade in there. Yeah, we could make many accounts in InstaForex so if one account is Margin Call, we could use another account to trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to use this forum as capital to trade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andry777 Posted March 20, 2011 Share Posted March 20, 2011 @Nikhil Wow that was great if those 7 refferals could active to make posts in there. It will be good help although you didn't make too much posts in a month. It still could give good amount of capitals from posting of those refferals. You got really many refferals.
