Base on what I see from IB TWS, the maintenance margin is different for every 3x etf. Look like the popular one has much lower maintenance margin.
The maintenance margin for shorting vix etf is damn high
For "borrowing" money to buy stock or doing leveraged FX trading , do I just make trade as normal but with the order amount greater than my cash amount?
I just test with shorting VXX, it looks like it is around 125%
UVXY around 180%, with around 10% annual borrowing interest rate
...that is a lot...especially how to practically short UVXY lol
Normally using first day of jan price chex
Comparing launch initial price of this stupid ai etf to spy or qqq from the same day which is oct 17 or 18 to now, still ai lose
