uTrade AlgosOnce your Margin Trading Facility (MTF) is active, it’s important to stay updated on your MTF margin status. This helps to ensure that you meet margin requirements and manage your exposure efficiently.
What is MTF Margin?
MTF Margin is the amount of money or approved securities you’ve deposited to fund your trades under the Margin Trading Facility. It reflects your contribution towards leveraged positions and plays a key role in determining how much funding Share India can provide you.
How to View Your MTF Margin on Share India
Step 1: Log in to your Share India trading dashboard and navigate to the ‘Funds’ section from the main menu.
Step 2: Here, you’ll be able to see the MTF margin.
These figures are updated regularly, providing a clear picture of your current position.
Note: Share India informs investors of their applicable margin status and any margin shortfall (if any) on a daily basis via email as well. Share India’s RMS may ask investors to cover any margin shortfall on shorter notice.
Why Is Viewing Your MTF Margin Important?
Avoid Automatic Square-off: If your margin falls below the required level and the shortfall is not resolved even after Share India’s notice, it could lead to an automatic square-off of your MTF positions by Share India’s Risk Management System (RMS). By regularly checking your MTF margin, you can take proactive steps to avoid this scenario.
Better Risk Management: Knowing your margin usage helps you control your leverage and stay within safe limits.
Efficient Capital Planning: It enables you to allocate your funds wisely and identify opportunities to adjust exposure based on market conditions.
