Ryan W 76 Posted September 3, 2019 It's possible to create a hotkey in DAS that will allow you to check the margin requirements of a particular stock before actually buying/shorting the stock. Please note, this is for IB clients only! via hotkey in DAS https://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/index.php?key=%SYMB%&cntry=usa&tag=United+States&ib_entity=hk&ln=&f=5168&ns=T If you enter the symbol in the montage then press the hotkey configured for above, it will launch. If there's no value then it's standard 25% for long and 30% for short. This helps to know to ensure you do not use all of your buying power before taking a position. For example: CBAY has 100 so just straight equity. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
