I’m confused on margin 2k requirement . like when opening an account and the purchase is 1900 then you just pay full, but if you open 3k and the half is 1.5k then you need 2k in ? so if you initial 5k and half is 2.5k so I need the 2.5k or just 2k ?

Hi, it depends on the type of account (long/short) and the value of the securities in the account. This is a fairly complex topic, and it would be a good idea to reread the margin deposit requirements chapter in its entirety!
