Can I lose more than my deposit?

Although unlikely, there is a chance that a trader can lose more than their initial investments due to margin trading. Forex and CFD markets can be extremely volatile, especially during a turmoil or a crisis. FairMarkets will notify clients with a margin call about decreasing free margin levels immediately in order to prevent such an event. Your position will be closed if your free margin goes below 20%. Because your balance does not cover your notional trading requirements. This is called Stop-Out.
