Margin is the amount of money the broker holds from your account as collateral to keep a leveraged position open. It is not a cost, but a deposit temporarily locked while the trade is active.
Why it matters: if your losses consume the available margin, the broker can close your positions automatically in what is called a margin call. Watching the margin level avoids surprises.
