Hi all,

I just opened an account at Datek. May I ask you guys a question?
The trade (order) page doesn't ask whether I want to trade on margin
or cash, does this mean that the trade will automatically be placed on margin? (My account is margin-enabled.) If it is, do they charge interest if I leave the position overnight(even though I have enough cash to cover it), i.e., will they charge 7% on my position and pay me 4% on cash?

Thanks a lot to all.
