Excuse me, could you clarify for me what the minimum amount required is for opening a margin account with your institution? I'm interested in leveraging my investments, but I want to ensure I have a clear understanding of the financial commitment involved. Additionally, would you be able to explain any potential risks or requirements associated with maintaining a margin account? I'm eager to learn more and make an informed decision.
