Margin Calculator

The Margin Calculator helps traders understand the margin requirements and leverage available for different types of trades. It calculates the required margin, maximum exposure, and potential risk, helping you make informed trading decisions and manage your trading capital effectively.

Key Components

  • Trade Value
  • Margin Percentage
  • Maximum Exposure
  • Risk per Trade
  • Leverage Ratio

How It Works

The calculator uses the following formulas to determine margin requirements:

  • Required Margin = Trade Value × Margin Percentage
  • Leverage = 1 / Margin Percentage
  • Maximum Exposure = Trade Value × Leverage
  • Risk per Trade = Required Margin × Risk Percentage

Benefits

  • Calculate exact margin requirements
  • Understand leverage limits
  • Manage trading capital
  • Assess risk exposure
  • Make informed trading decisions

Using the Calculator

Enter your trade value and margin percentage to calculate the required margin and other trading parameters. The calculator will provide a comprehensive view of your trading capital requirements and risk exposure, helping you make informed trading decisions.

Calculate Your Margin Requirements

Enter the stock price, quantity, and margin percentage. The calculator shows the total order value, margin required, and broker-funded amount. For F&O, it computes SPAN and exposure margin based on the instrument. It also shows the maximum loss scenario and the price level at which a margin call would be triggered.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is margin trading?

Margin trading allows you to buy stocks by paying only a fraction of the total value (margin). The broker finances the rest. SEBI mandates a minimum margin of 20% for cash segment and varying margins for F&O based on risk. Margin amplifies both gains and losses. If the stock falls, you face a margin call to deposit additional funds.

How does margin work in India?

For intraday trading, brokers offer 5-20x leverage (5-20% margin). For delivery, the minimum margin is 20% of the order value. For F&O, SEBI prescribes SPAN + exposure margin. If your margin falls below the maintenance level, you receive a margin call and must deposit funds or the broker can liquidate your position.

What are the risks of margin trading?

Losses are amplified proportionally to leverage. A 10x leverage means a 10% price drop wipes out your entire margin. Margin calls can force liquidation at the worst time. Interest charges on margin funding reduce returns. SEBI has tightened margin norms to protect retail investors. Only experienced traders should use margin.
