Real-time
activity monitor
Our real-time monitoring system lets you see the current state of your account at any time to give you the edge you need in changing market conditions.
Unlike other brokers who calculate margin only at the end of the trading day, MEXEM provides real-time data that gives you the edge you need to react quickly to the markets.
The Margin Requirements section of the Account window allows you to understand your trading risk at any moment of the day by calculating requirements for the initial margin (at the time of the trade) and maintenance margin (when holding positions) on a real-time basis.
The TWS Account Window
The Account window in Trader Workstation lets you monitor every aspect of your account activity, including the values used in MEXEM’s margin calculations.
We present key account values as the default when you first open the Account window, and you can expand each section of the Account window to display all values. The Account window displays real-time values, including those listed below.
For more information on any of the real-time monitoring features mentioned here, as well as a table containing definitions of all values, see the TWS Users’ Guide.

MEXEM will automatically liquidate when the account falls below the minimum maintenance margin requirement. To help avoid this scenario, TWS provides pop-up warning messages and color-coded account information as a notification that you are approaching a margin deficiency. This allows you to take action such as entering margin-reducing trades instead of risking liquidations.
To help customers monitor margin deficiencies, TWS displays color-coded messages on the Account Screen and pop-up warning messages to notify customers that they are approaching their margin limits. This feature allows you to take action, such as entering margin-reducing trades,to avoid having MEXEM liquidate your positions. The colors on the Account screen convey the following information at a glance:
Margin Warnings
Margin reports show margin requirements for single and combination positions, and display both available and excess liquidity. Each day at 16:15 ET we record your margin and equity information across all asset classes and exchanges. You can access your margin reports under the Margin Report menu item (Report Management) within Account Management. Here is an example of a portion of a margin report.
