AG has testified before Congress that changes in margin requirements affect disproportionately a small number of people and do not affect the overall economy as much as monetary policy. That is why they are not used anymore. I think changing margin requirements is a bad way to institute monetary policy because of the disproportionate affect on a few people; plus they cause quick changes and the loss falls on a few and causes a disproportionate affect on the stock market.
