What are Margin Required level and Forced Sales, and when can they happen?
Last updated: 12 August 2026
Currently, Stock Margin is only available to residents of Spain who registered after 2 August 2024, and to residents of Belgium. |
Market movements can reduce the value of your investments and cause your position to fall below the required margin level.
If this happens, you may be required to add additional funds or assets to maintain your position. If you do not do so, etoro may sell some or all of your investments without prior notice, including during unfavourable market conditions or periods of reduced liquidity.
You may not be able to choose which investments are sold or the price at which they are sold, and you may still have an amount to repay after the sale.
