Ian, anybody who has margin close to the limit should take there money to Vegas and roll the dice once, win and have a cash account or lose and don't worry about drops in the market. I don't use margin myself and think to many people get in trouble with it, the market is not supposed to be for money that you are going to need short term. How can you borrow money to play unless you are very optomistic or over exuburent is how Greenspan put it. Markets will go up and down so margin accounts will always be risky, I keep my emergency money seperate from my investment money and sleep well at night.
