Good for you. Margin is very dangerous.

Previously, you only had to have 50% equity when you bought the securities. If the value fell from there, you would not get a margin call until your equity got down to a number in the 30% to 40% range. Now, for the specified Internet stocks, you will get a margin call as soon as your equity falls below 50%.
