i wanna ask, if i have $1000 in my fxcm account, and it profited $300 = $1300 in my account now. My margin is 400:1.

if i want to withdraw my profit of 300, will it include the margin profit (400 x 300) or just 300?

sorry noob question

So just key in PBBEMYKL for Public Bank, everyone's the same if they use Public Bank, am I right??
Newbie here as well , but isn't 400:1 known as leverage ?

I am not sure what you are trying to say. But if you make $300, then you withdraw $300, your account would be left with $1000.

Yes, everyone is the same.

Thanks.

Another very noob question :

If I buy something at 1.12859 ,

then the market keeps on falling to 1.12600

Can I keep on holding it until the next day?

you can hold it as long as you want provided your margin is sufficient.

Ahh I see ! That's what the margin is for !

ty

Yes but its risky, pls read about margin call before you decide to do so.

what i meant was can i withdraw the profit that was made out of the leverage?

What profit that was made out of the leverage?
Sorry but I don't understand what you are trying to say. Maybe you can elaborate further.

Alright, will do

your question is too complicated, can u make it simpler?

but i guess u are confuse with margin, leverage, profit & balance. U withdraw $300 it doesn't affect anything, just ur account balance reduce $300. Thats all

I think I know what he's trying to express .

because when you set up an account you have to fix your preferable leverage mah

that means even though you have 1k USD but you can "borrow" money for higher price .

so he's trying to say since he's using small amount of capital to multiply profits and losses , will it affect his take home profits ?

but I think if you profit 300, and that's that . no extra

Not sure what ur broker offer for the leverage, my broker may offer until 1:888 and can change anytime I wan.

Profit and balance and initial deposit doesn't related at all. U withdraw then withdraw la, won't affect anything. Even if u withdraw all, the setting still will remain same, unless your broker got T&C in between.

old_and_slow , leverage is leverage.
I guess it wouldn't affect the calculations for the profits stated.
If got extra $400, then can withdraw it without needing to multiply this or that.

What the hell you talking? We were talking about leveraged profits. Didn't mention anything about balance or initial deposit or broker's T&C

u can hold as long u wan.. but 2 things in concern..

1. Margin level can hold or not..as long no margin call
2. Swap... if the position is being charge swap... then everyday u will kena swap charges

Margin call is determined by my broker, right?

What the hell is swap

You should start with babypips.com before you trade.

Done.

still doesn't understand.

so deep

Swap is essentially the differential in interest rates between the two currencies.
