Initial Margin & Minimum Margin

The initial margin is the percentage of the purchase price of a security that must be covered by cash when using a margin account. For example, a 50% initial margin means an investor will have $20,000 purchasing power if he/she initially deposits $10,000 to the margin account. There is also a minimum margin required for an initial deposit and usually set at $2,000.

Maintenance Margin & Margin Call

Maintenance margin is the minimum amount of equity that an investor must maintain in the margin account after the purchase has been made, and it's usually set at above 25% of the total value of holding securities in the margin account. The investor may be hit margin call if the current value of equities falls below the maintenance margin threshold.
