Trading scenario: what happens if you trade with just $100?


What happens if you open a trading account with just $100?


Or €100? Or £100?


Since margin trading allows you to open trades with just a small amount of money, it’s certainly possible to start trading forex with a $100 deposit.


But should you?


Margin Call Bear Puzzled


Let’s see what can happen if you do.


In this trading scenario, your retail forex broker has a margin call level at 100% and a stop out level at 20%.


TRADE 100 BONUS — WORK OUT FOR MORE, trade 100.


Now that we know what the margin call and stop out levels are, let’s find out if trading with $100 is doable.


If you have not read our lessons on margin call and stop out levels, hit pause on this lesson and start here first!


Step 1: deposit funds into trading account


Account Balance


Since you’re a big baller shot caller, you deposit $100 into your trading account.


You now have an account balance of $100.


This is how it’d look in your trading account:


Long / short FX pair position size entry price current price margin level equity used margin free margin balance floating P/L
$100 $100 $100


Step 2: calculate required margin


You want to go short EUR/USD at 1.20000 and want to open 5 micro lots (1,000 units x 5) position. The margin requirement is 1%.


How much margin (“required margin“) will you need to open the position?


Since our trading account is denominated in USD, we need to convert the value of the EUR to USD to determine the notional value of the trade.


The notional value is $6,000.


Now we can calculate the required margin:


Required Margin


Assuming your trading account is denominated in USD, since the margin requirement is 1%, the required margin will be $60.


Step 3: calculate used margin


Used Margin


Aside from the trade we just entered, there aren’t any other trades open.


Since we just have a SINGLE position open, the used margin will be the same as required margin.


Step 4: calculate equity


Let’s assume that the price has moved slightly in your favor and your position is now trading at breakeven.


This means that your floating P/L is $0.


Let’s calculate your equity:


Equity


The equity in your account is now $100.


Step 5: calculate free margin


Now that we know the equity, we can now calculate the free margin:


Free Margin


The free margin is $40.


Step 6: calculate margin level


Now that we know the equity, we can now calculate the margin level:


Margin Level


The margin level is 167%. At this point, this is how your account metrics would look in your trading platform:


Long / short FX pair position size entry price current price margin level equity used margin free margin balance floating P/L
$100 $100
short EUR/USD 6,000 1.20000 1.20000 167% $100 $60 $40 $100 $0


EUR/USD rises 80 pips!


Margin Call Level


EUR/USD rises 80 pips and is now trading at 1.2080. Let’s see how your account is affected.


Used margin


You’ll notice that the used margin has changed.


Because the exchange rate has changed, the notional value of the position has changed.


This requires recalculating the required margin.


Whenever there’s a change in the price for EUR/USD, the required margin changes!


With EUR/USD now trading at 1.20800 (instead of 1.20000), let’s see how much required margin is needed to keep the position open.


Since our trading account is denominated in USD, we need to convert the value of the EUR to USD to determine the notional value of the trade.


The notional value is $6,040.


Previously, the notional value was $6,000. Since EUR/USD has risen, this means that EUR has strengthened. And since your account is denominated in USD, this causes the position’s notional value to increase.


Now we can calculate the required margin:


Notice that because the notional value has increased, so has the required margin.


Since the margin requirement is 1%, the required margin will be $60.40.


Previously, the required margin was $60.00 (when EUR/USD was trading at 1.20000).


The used margin is updated to reflect changes in required margin for every position open.


In this example, since you only have one position open, the used margin will be equal to the new required margin.


Floating P/L


EUR/USD has risen from 1.20000 to 1.2080, a difference of 80 pips.


Since you’re trading micro lots, a 1 pip move equals $0.10 per micro lot.


Your position is 5 micro lots, a 1 pip move equals $0.50.


Since you’re short EUR/USD, this means that you have a floating loss of $40.


Equity


Your equity is now $60.


Free margin


Your free margin is now $0.


Margin level


Your margin level has decreased to 99%.


The margin call level is when margin level is 100%.


Your margin level is still now below 100%!


Margin Call Bear Oh No!


At this point, you will receive a margin call, which is a WARNING.


Your positions will remain open BUT…


You will NOT be able to open new positions as long unless the margin level rises above 100%.


Account metrics


This is how your account metrics would look in your trading platform:


Long / short FX pair position size entry price current price margin level equity used margin free margin balance floating P/L
$100 $100 $100
short EUR/USD 5,000 1.20000 1.20000 167% $100 $60 $40 $100 $0
short EUR/USD 5,000 1.20000 1.2080 99% $60 $60.40 -$0.40 $100 -$40


EUR/USD rises another 96 pips!


Stop Out Level


EUR/USD rises another 96 pips and is now trading at 1.2176.


Used margin


With EUR/USD now trading at 1.21760 (instead of 1.20800), let’s see how much required margin is needed to keep the position open.


Since our trading account is denominated in USD, we need to convert the value of the EUR to USD to determine the notional value of the trade.


The notional value is $6,088.


Now we can calculate the required margin:


Notice that because the notional value has increased, so has the required margin.


Previously, the required margin was $60.40 (when EUR/USD was trading at 1.20800).


The used margin is updated to reflect changes in required margin for every position open.


In this example, since you only have one position open, the used margin will be equal to the new required margin.


Floating P/L


EUR/USD has now risen from 1.20000 to 1.217600, a difference of 176 pips.


Since you’re trading 5 micro lots, a 1 pip move equals $0.50.


Due to your short position, this means that you have a floating loss of $88.


Equity


Your equity is now $12.


Free margin


Your free margin is now –$48.88.


Margin level


Your margin level has decreased to 20%.


At this point, your margin level is now below the stop out level!


Account metrics


This is how your account metrics would look in your trading platform:


Long / short FX pair position size entry price current price margin level equity used margin free margin balance floating P/L
$100 $100 $100
short EUR/USD 5,000 1.20000 1.20000 167% $100 $60 $40 $100 $0
short EUR/USD 5,000 1.20000 1.20800 99% $60 $60.40 -$0.40 $100 -$40
short EUR/USD 5,000 1.20000 1.21760 20% $12 $60.88 -$48.88 $100 -$88


Stop out!


The stop out level is when the margin level falls to 20%.


At this point, your margin level reached the stop out level!


Margin Call Bear Face Palm


Your trading platform will automatically execute a stop out.


This means that your trade will be automatically closed at market price and two things will happen:



  1. Your used margin will be “released”.

  2. Your floating loss will be “realized”.



Your balance will be updated to reflect the realized loss.


Now that your account has no open positions and is “flat”, your free margin, equity, and balance will be the same.


Stop Out Result


There is no margin level or floating P/L because there are no open positions.


Let’s see how your trading account changed from start to finish.


Long / short FX pair position size entry price current price margin level equity used margin free margin balance floating P/L
$100 $10,000 $100
short EUR/USD 5,000 1.20000 1.20000 167% $100 $60 $40 $100 $0
short EUR/USD 5,000 1.20000 1.20800 99% $60 $60.40 -$0.40 $100 -$40
short EUR/USD 5,000 1.20000 1.21760 20% $12 $60.88 -$48.88 $100 -$88
$12 $12 $12


Before the trade, you had $100 in cash.


Now after just a SINGLE TRADE, you’re left with $12!


Not even enough to pay for one month of netflix!


You’ve lost 88% of your capital.


And with EUR/USD moving just 176 pips!


Moving 176 pips is nothing. EUR/USD can easily move that much in a day or two. (see real-time EUR/USD volatility on marketmilk™)


Congratulations! You just blew your account! ��


Margin Call Bear Out


Since your account balance is too low to open any new trades, your trading account is pretty much dead.



UK 100 FTSE 100 index


Containing some of the largest companies in the world, the UK 100 is correlated to the country's economic indicators as well as global growth.


Latest research


Week ahead: BOE, RBA, coronavirus and more “short squeezes”?


US market open: stocks continue to struggle after tumultuous week


Top UK stocks to watch: avon rubber on track as pandemic drives-up demand


Interesting facts


The UK 100 is one of the most widely used metrics when evaluating the performance of the UK economy. The index is comprised of the largest companies in the UK by market capitalisation, and the larger the company the more influence it has over the index’s price. In the UK, the largest companies are usually found in the mining, energy (particularly oil and gas) and financial services sectors.


Price drivers


The UK 100 is closely linked to economies throughout europe through trade and geographical proximity, thus it can be influenced by investor sentiment surrounding large equity markets in europe. Furthermore, during times of global crisis the economy can sometimes ignore domestic fundamentals in favour of overall investor sentiment (for example: 08/09 financial crisis and the european debt crisis), with the possible exception being the bank of england’s interest rate decisions and policy announcements. More specifically, the index is susceptible to the sentiment surrounding global banking markets due to the high weighting banking stocks have on the index. Also, mining and energy companies account for a significant proportion of the index, which means investors should keep an eye on commodity prices and the level of demand for these assets.

How to trade FTSE 100


TRADE 100 BONUS — WORK OUT FOR MORE, trade 100.


The FTSE 100 is one of the most popular indices to trade


FTSE trading is a popular pursuit for those interested in financial markets. Originally a joint venture between the financial times and the london stock exchange (LSE), the FTSE 100 is an index of the UK’s top 100 companies by market capitalization. Managed by the FTSE group, the index is updated and published every 15 seconds.


In this piece, we’ll cover the key tips and strategies for trading FTSE 100, which both beginner and advanced traders can use to gain an edge over this popular market.


FTSE 100 trading basics


The FTSE 100 is one of the most widely traded indices in the world. Trading the index began in 1984 at a level of 1,000, and on may 21 , 2018 reached all-time intra-day and closing highs of 7868 and 7859 respectively. The FTSE 250 and the FTSE 350 represent the next largest companies outside of the top 100.


It is worth remembering that while the FTSE 100 is focused on the leading UK companies by market cap, a majority of the revenues of the constituent companies are made overseas, so it may not be as strong a barometer of the domestic economy as it appears. It also means that if the pound falls, the FTSE often rises as companies benefit from their products being priced more competitively overseas.


As with other stock markets, FTSE trading can, where permitted, be undertaken through derivatives such as cfds and spread betting, which enable you to speculate on the price movements of the index.


Understanding how the FTSE 100 market works


When it comes to knowing how to trade the FTSE 100, the first step is to understand how the market works. The figure quoted for the FTSE 100 is calculated using the total market capitalization of the companies in the index. When the index is revealed as being ‘up’ or ‘down’, the change is quoted against the previous day’s close.


Traders should be aware of the nature of the constituent companies in the index as their performance – and in turn the index – can be affected by a range of diverse and global political and economic factors.

What moves the FTSE 100 market?


It’s also important for traders of FTSE 100 to know what moves the market. Factors which affect price movements include political and economic events, interest rates, earnings reports, and commodity prices.


Political and economic events


Political and economic turbulence can have a significant impact on indices, and the FTSE 100 is no exception. Naturally, different events can affect the index in different ways. For example, after the brexit referendum, the plunge of the pound has been a boon for the overseas profits of FTSE 100 constituents, a factor contributing to the index rising to in excess of 7750 in july 2018. With around 60% of the FTSE 100 company revenues coming from outside the UK, falls in the pound’s value can have a very positive impact.


However, during the financial downturn of 2008, the FTSE 100 index suffered its worst ever year, falling by 391 points in a single day at one point. The plunge was fueled by the banking crisis and fears of a global recession, and mirrored the falls of other major stock markets around the world.


Interest rate adjustments can have a noticeable effect on the FTSE 100 index. When they rise, investment in FTSE 100 equities often falls due to decreased corporate profitability caused by higher interest repayments.


There have been a number of interest rate hikes since the inception of the index in 1984. For example, in august 2018, the bank of england base rate was raised to 0.75% representing only the second rise in a decade, prompting the FTSE 100 to slip by more than 1% on the news.


Traders should pay attention to the earnings reports of major FTSE 100 constituents. Valuations are in part driven by expectations, and giant individual stocks such as shell and glaxosmithkline are capable of dragging the index higher or lower by themselves.


The FTSE 100 index is influenced greatly by commodity price fluctuations due to its heavy bias towards oil and mining stocks. Indeed, there are five oil companies in the FTSE 100 and their share prices, in turn, are affected more by events in the middle east than in the UK. Additionally, around 10% of the index is composed of mining companies, which are sensitive to supply and demand in countries such as china.

  2. Study the charts: look at longer-term charts such as daily and weekly charts to get a feel of market sentiment. Assess recent price action to get a feel for what the market may do that day. Our FTSE 100 live chart is a key resource to use.

  3. Prepare a n intraday chart like a 2 hour or 4 hour chart: the FTSE intraday timeframe chart is used by many professional and beginner traders alike to trade the FTSE 100.

Look for the patterns to fit with your support and resistance levels; patterns to look out for might include a ‘shooting star’ or ‘double top’.

  4. Look out for FTSE trading signals: assess the candlesticks and patterns as they present themselves during the trading day. Is the FTSE in a trend? Look for momentum trades , reversal trades, trends in either direction, and trend channels.

  5. Assess the reward and risk: before placing a trade, work out the reward to risk ratio. A 2:1 ratio is a popular choice, but traders should never go below 1:1.

  6. Place stops and profit targets: based on your reward to risk ratio above, set a stop loss just outside a recent swing high or low. Then, set a reasonable target for a positive reward to risk ratio.

  7. Know the FTSE 100 trading hours: FTSE tends to be more liquid during UK’s business hours making it easier to get in and out of the trades are you desired price. The FTSE trading hours to bear in mind are 8:00 to 16:30 (UK time) .

E*TRADE is offering a sweet $100 cash bonus on new accounts


Angelica Leicht
angelica leicht – mortgage editor last updated: september 1, 2020

TRADE 100 BONUS — WORK OUT FOR MORE, trade 100.


Please note: that the E*TRADE limited time offer is no longer available.


*their standard offering is $0 commissions for online stock, ETF, & options trades.*


If you’ve considered dabbling in investments but haven’t taken the leap, E*TRADE is rolling out a new cash back promo that may entice you to open an account. For the next couple of months, E*TRADE is offering an extra $100 for customers who deposit or transfer a minimum of $5,000 into their E*TRADE accounts.


While E*TRADE regularly rolls out cash-back promotional offers, it often requires a much heftier deposit than $5,000 to qualify. But if you’re interested in taking advantage of this free promo money, you need to get moving, because E*TRADE is only offering this deal until jan. 6, 2020.


This is just one of many offers E*TRADE has rolled out recently. Earlier this month, the electronic trading platform stepped up its game and cut commissions to $0 while removing the account minimum for brokerage accounts.


And, if you’re ready and willing to invest a little more than $5,000, E*TRADE is offering another cash-back promo that you may want to take advantage of. This offer is only valid through the end of 2019, but it could help you rake in up to $2,500.


Here’s the deal: if you open a non-retirement brokerage account by dec. 31, 2019 and fund it with new funds or securities from an outside account within 60 days, you’re eligible for a cash bonus of between $200 and $2,500. There are several tiers of qualifying deposits and cash bonuses, which range from:



  • A $200 cash bonus for depositing or transferring between $25,000 and $99,999

  • A $300 cash bonus for depositing or transferring between $100,000 and $249,999

  • A $600 for depositing or transferring between $250,000 and $499,999

  • A $1,200 for depositing or transferring between $500,000 and $999,999

  • A $2,500 for depositing or transferring $1 million or more



There are a couple of caveats, though. To receive the cash bonus, you have to fund your account with money or securities from an outside account — so you can’t take advantage of this offer by moving the funds you already have sitting in your E*TRADE account. The other caveat is that you have to keep your new account open for at least six months or you’ll lose your cash bonus. On the upside, E*TRADE will make your bonus funds available to you within seven days of funding your account.



List of trade careers



If you want a career path that doesn’t require four years of college yet provides a comfortable salary, a trade career might be the ideal option. Manual labor jobs that require a specific skill set or training are categorized as trade careers. Many trades provide on-the-job training, or you can go to a vocational school and hit the ground running in less than two years. Among the several categories of trade careers, jobs include mechanics, plumbers, welders and paramedics.


A booming trade area is the health-care industry. In 2016, the median pay for a medical sonographer was $64,280, and a respiratory therapist earned $58,670, as reported by the bureau of labor statistics. When you compare these salaries to a minimum wage job, a trade career is a solid alternative.


Building trades


Building trades encompass a variety of construction jobs, including carpentry, flooring, masonry and plumbing. If you want to begin work immediately and have some basic skills, you can land a job as a painter, landscaper or carpet installer with very little training or experience. As you learn the trade, you may decide to open your own business or move into a larger company. If you want to become an electrician, plumber, pipe fitter or welder, you will need to go to vocational school and complete an apprenticeship. For example, becoming an electrician requires learning the trade, becoming an apprentice and practicing alongside a certified electrician, prior to becoming licensed. This journey may take five years, but you will be paid while in training.



  • Carpenter

  • Carpet installer

  • Electrician

  • Heavy equipment operator

  • Insulation installer

  • Landscaper

  • Painter

  • Plumber


Mechanical trades


Many mechanical trades require a certification of competency that spans two qualification levels. The first level is referred to as the journey level, and this requires an apprenticeship or experience that is equivalent. The second level is the master level. You must work as a journeyman or journeywoman for a minimum of a year and take a competency test to become a master. Attaining a college degree or taking classes at a vocational school provides additional knowledge, but it is possible to become certified through job training or an apprenticeship. Working as an assistant in a mechanical trade while in high school or networking with mechanical experts will help pave the way.



  • Auto mechanic

  • HVAC installer

  • Machinist

  • Mechanical drafter

  • Locksmith

  • Mechanical insulator

  • Elevator mechanic

  • Mechanical installer


Industrial trades


Industrial trades encompass jobs rooted in manufacturing and technology. These careers involve designing, building and problem-solving. A high school diploma is usually the first requirement, but special skills, previous experience and technical education will set you apart. Like other trade positions, an apprenticeship can gain you entrance into this field. If hired, you can complete your apprenticeship requirements while employed. Working in an industrial trade job provides an opportunity for advancement. You may be promoted to a foreman or supervisory position after you gain the proper experience.



  • Steam engineer

  • Cargo freight agent

  • Ironworker

  • Line installer and repairer

  • Paving equipment operator

  • Metal fabricator

  • Asbestos worker


Medical trades


You don’t have to be a doctor or nurse to work in the health-care industry. A certificate program or two_-_year degree from a community college will prepare you to work in a variety of health-care jobs. For example, becoming a dental hygienist or a radiologist only requires two years of college. In 2016, the bureau of labor statistics indicated that both positions had potential earnings in excess of $50,000. An ultrasound technologist or certified nursing assistant only requires a certificate program. Medical trade positions are widely available and offer benefits, along with competitive compensation packages.
