Thread HELP (again)!!!!! I was just informed by my broker (Schwab) that due to my concentration in one stock my minimum margin requirements have been INCREASED to 40%!!! I am currently at 37%. They have told me that the risk department made the decision and there is no changing their minds (although someone is going to try for me supposedly). Quick, I need the name of another broker that will take my account and maintain the 35% equity requirement. I also need someone with a quick account application because beginning Jan 17th they will sell me out. Well, I had one day without panic...now CSCO will warn or something and I will really get screwed.
