Understanding Margin on Ouinex

Ouinex margin explained: how margin works in trading, how to understand margin calls, and what happens during liquidation.

I Still Had Funds Available So Why Was I Liquidated?

"I still had funds available, so why was I liquidated?" Many traders mistake free margin for a safety cushion, only to face an unexpected liquidation. This guide breaks down the difference between free margin and equity, using a real XAU/USD gold trade example.

Margin Call vs Liquidation: What's the Difference and When Do They Trigger?

Many traders use these two terms as if they meant the same thing. Actually, they don’t and this confusion is behind the vast majority of misunderstandings when it comes to how trading platforms handle risk. This article breaks down exactly how each mechanism works on Ouinex, so you always know where you stand.

I Have a Balance Left So the Liquidation Was Unjustified?

Liquidation does not aim to drain your account. It aims to protect it. The 95% used margin threshold makes sure a positive balance stays in your account after closure. Having money left after a liquidation is not an anomaly. It is proof that everything worked correctly.

"My order was triggered but I never saw that price on the chart!"

The gap between what you see and where you execute can feel significant. If you consider the dynamic spread that widens during volatile or low-liquidity periods, and tightens in vise versa.

Why did I receive a “deposit rejected” notification?

Someone sent a fraction of a cent to your wallet, not you, not Ouinex. It’s a common blockchain tracking technique called a dust pollution or dust attack. Ouinex detected it, rejected it to protect your account’s compliance status, and notified you. No action needed.
