Margin Calculator Formula

Margin = (Contract Size × Lots × Price × USD Rate) ÷ Leverage

Example (AUD/USD): 1 lot at 0.6937 = $69,370 position; at 20:1 leverage: $69,370 ÷ 20 = $3,469

About AUD/USD — Australian Dollar / US Dollar

AUD/USD (Aussie) is strongly correlated with commodity prices, particularly iron ore and gold. It is a risk-on currency — it tends to rise when global equities advance and fall during risk-off episodes. The Reserve Bank of Australia's rate decisions and Chinese economic data are key drivers.
