Bet you weren't at 60% going into Oct 98 and not get a margin call.

Thanks Greg. I appreciate that. I usually feel safe with 50 but I'll stretch to 60% if you say so.

Happy New Year!!

Hi greg.

what do you mean by "60% or higher"

If you have 10,000 , what is being at 60% or higher..

16,000 or less ?

Take care
Jean

Just keep your margin at 60% or higher. I have been on margin for many many years, never once had
a cal


You meant equity above 60%, I hope <G>

BTW, if you get margin calls at 30% equity then 60% equity gives
you a protection of about 42% decline in price.
