jtrade - I would think c) is the likely answer.
"And the winner is..." handy148

Apparently, the exchange will indeed offset margin right down to $1k for a +5 FDXM -1FDAX position... but the darned broker is not so generous and wants the full $7.5k.

This was a public service announcement.

... my 768 just filled so I am long 2 @ 788; next order @ 728 (note very wide spacing) :

Prob bounce off VWAP to stop @ +3, but just in case...
Trade closed +21.5 x 2, chart updated

Comment : the trade worked, but looking forwards I do not have stainless steel Italian cojones, unfortunately rather old, squidgy Scottish ones, so I am more concerned about getting into the sort of position in which I found myself yesterday morning. The solution seems simple : (very) wide spacing of add-ons (maximum just 3), with much more account margin than my former method required. Need to get this (margin funds) in place by 1 August latest.

Does that make us a trading version of Ian Dury & the Blockheads ?
