Margin Ratio
Margin ratio is a risk measure used by trading platforms to compare account or position resources with required margin. The exact formula and interpretation vary by platform.
Why it matters to you
Margin ratio can indicate how close an account or position is to breaching the platform's margin requirements. Because exchanges calculate it differently, traders should understand what the number means on the platform they actually use rather than assuming the same percentage has the same meaning everywhere.
