US President Trump: I hope an agreement can be reached between Iran and Israel, but sometimes problems must be resolved through struggle.Israeli Military: The Israeli Air Force is currently attacking surface-to-surface missile sites in central Iran.Market News: An official said that Iran told mediators Qatar and Oman that it was unwilling to negotiate a ceasefire with Israel during the Israeli attack.On June 16, Richard Bronzi, head of geopolitics at consulting firm Energy Aspects, said, "Now that Israel has crossed the threshold, the market will question whether it will further strike Irans energy infrastructure. We seem to be caught in a vicious cycle of escalating conflict." Helima Croft, head of global commodity strategy at Royal Bank of Canada Capital Markets and former CIA analyst, said, "If the supply is interrupted, Trump is likely to ask the Saudi-led OPEC+ alliance to use its considerable idle production capacity." Irans current daily output is about 3.4 million barrels, and it is uncertain whether OPEC can make up for its long-term large-scale shutdown gap. This move itself may make Saudi Arabia and the UAEs energy facilities a target of public criticism. Clay Siegel, a senior fellow at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, analyzed: "Although OPEC can use idle production capacity to replace Iranian crude oil, Saudi Arabia and the UAE will face huge political risks if they profit from it."Israels emergency organization "Red Shield of David": Irans latest round of ballistic missile attacks has injured 8 people in Israel.

what is margin and margin ratio?

Each time you open a new position, a certain percentage of the balance of your account will be withheld as the initial margin for the opening of the new position. The price of the currency pair, your trading volume, and your margin dictate the margin level you need to reserve for each trade. The amount of the margin is usually indicated in the base currency.

Maintenance margin is the minimum margin amount required to maintain the account when you hold the position. 

The margin ratio is equal to the available margin divided by the account equity, and the available margin is the equity minus the margin (used margin) required to establish an existing position.

In top1,If the  margin ratio is less than 50%, the held position will be automatically closed.


Suppose you open a 200:1 leverage or 0.5% margin account.
If you open a mini-lot position with you margin, you don't have to use the full $10,000; you only need to provide an initial margin of $50 ($10,000 × 0.5%=$50).
