You must have a fast speed computer to be able to receive the market rates in real time. This is very very important. Do not try to deal with a slow computer you will lose your money very fast. When opening a position the rate you confirm at is the price it goes through as. If you hesitate to confirm the price changes continuously. In a mini account a parcel of 10 uses $ 50 used margin. The balance of your account is the usable margin.
