IB Notification- November 14, 2002
Margin Requirements for Currency Assets
Dear IB Trader:
As of Monday, November 18th, non-base currencies will become part of the list of assets considered for liquidation when there is a margin deficiency. IB recommends that traders with multiple currencies review the margin requirements for currency assets. This modification will in no way affect traders who only trade in their base currency.
