Maintenance margin

From Traderpedia

Definition:
A sum, usually smaller than, but part of, the initial margin - which must be maintained on deposit in the customer's account at all times.


If a customer's equity in any futures position drops to, or under, the maintenance margin level, a "margin call" is issued for the amount of money required to restore the customer's equity in the account to the initial margin level.
