How does Margin Trading work?
Margin Trading is a type of Equity Trading where investors buy more stocks than they can afford from a broker willing to lend the stocks. The stocks will act as collateral for the broker. You open a Margin Trading Facility (MTF) account with the trader and pay a minimum margin amount that the broker can use to recover any losses. Margin trading takes place within the same day. You must square off your position at the end of every session. If not, the broker has the right to square off those shares.
