RE:Margin Requirements

RE:Margin RequirementsThanks Arb. I am also with a smaller broker with a similar margin qualification structure. I also have some counterbalance equities that are pretty stable and use them for leverage. My brokerage tends to allow some flexibility when I stay in contact with them about what is going on but in general yes, I too have had trades denied on the basis of "concentration." 

They don't like it but I have bought a few equities, levered into NCU and resold the others... generelly means a 5 minute phone call to get an exception to the rule but they are always reasonable about it.

I agree Notgnu that if reverse consolidation brings share price above above $2 cdn it will qualify for margin.

My Canadian brokerage offers the following margin on TSX listings:

SP above $5 qualifies for 70%
SP above $3 qualifies for 50%
$2.01 to $3 qualifies for  40%
Less than $2 qualifies for Nil

Same terms for Nasdaq and NYSE

I will tell you from experience that it you have a concentrated single position say solely in NCU, many brokers will not offer margin or will greatly reduce.

Concentration become a huge red flag for most brokerages. I have a heavy concentration of 50% of my portfolio that had a share price of $15 and qualified for 70% based on above criteria but brokerage was concerned about concentration and reduce available margin to 25%.


On another occasion I held only one stock so 100% concentration and it qualified for 70% as outlined above but initially they denied margin due to concentration risk but I finally was able to get 12% versus 70%. If you are with one of the big 5 banks this will be a major issue hence why I use a smaller broker who are more flexible.
