DislikedMargin req on IB for my account is EUR 2,353 currently. As you know it is a small Reg-T EUR nominated account. So, about 2,353 x 1.2424 = $2,923... Imagine what that margin req would be on a portfolio margin account... (Hey njr, you can check that for us!) That is how the dough traders with large accounts can maintain so many positions (and trade small relative to account size).Ignored
