WONKAI INSIGHT

Why it matters

Unpaid settlement amounts and insufficient collateral on a margin loan are different problems. Forced liquidation may occur even if you intend to hold the investment.

What to check now

  1. Confirm settlement obligations and whether credit or margin features are enabled.
  2. Read your broker's current collateral calculation, deadline and liquidation terms rather than assuming a universal threshold.
