I'm so confused. I thought the whole idea of margin trading is that you get more than what you pledged to trade? So if you pledge 1k, you're supposed to be able to trade more than 1k.

But with RakuMargin you can only trade lesser than what you pledged. So if you pledge 1k, you can trade up to 800.

It is supposed to be x2.25 if you pledge cash and trading limit shows up as 2,250 but it won't let me trade above 80% of my collateral / 800.

If that is the case why would anyone want to pledge money to trade lesser?

This just doesn't make sense. Am I understanding the whole concept of margin trading wrongly?
