margin

[jjj eee]

margin is the money under playing, under trading, how to put it in the balance by clicking yourself when you have enough...

[Sergey Golubev]

You will see it when you open the trade :

not when you close the trade ? how to close a trade ? with an EA ?

[Sergey Golubev]

It should be some indicator or script ... you can check in MT5 Codebase as there are many of them (such as "account information" and so on).

You don't close a "trade",  you close a position or part of a position in MT5, it's important to use the correct terminology for effective communication.  Orders, Positions and Deals in MetaTrader 5

Indicators cannot place Orders,  only Scripts or EAs.

He is talking about 'how to see margin if no order is open' :) ... something about account information ...

my question was, when to close a position when the margin is 1500$, does it goes into the balance ? when you close a position.. does the margin ever goes into the balance somehow ?

Forex trading work with leverage, for example if you want to trade 1 standard lot of EURUSD, that means 100.000€, you don't have to hold 100.000€. Suppose the leverage is 1:100, then to open this position a margin of 1.000€ is needed (100.000 / 100), of course when you close this 1 lot position, the margin is released. These margin is related to your equity, that gives you the margin level (=equity/margin). In any case the margin will "go into the balance", it's simply reserved when you open a position and released when you close it.
