View the new margin table with the changes highlighted above updated in force from 9th September here.

On the day of implementation, any open trades you have will be affected in the following way:

xStation - there will be no effect on current margins, only new trades will be affected.
MT4 - your  position margin will be recalculated and any leverage reduction could affect your open trades. Please make every effort to review your open trades and cash balance to ensure they are unlikely to reach our Margin Stop Out Level of 30%.
