As one would expect, events surrounding Greenland are leading the news cycle, including new tariff threats between the US and Europe, but tensions may ramp up in earnest later today with President Trump’s appearance at the Davos summit in Switzerland. Suffice to say markets are in risk-off mode for the time being. Traders took money off the table early this week, with stocks and cryptocurrencies bearing the brunt of the selloff. Stock indices around the world continued to fall yesterday, but the declines in the US were particularly sharp due to American market closures on Monday, forcing traders to catch up to the losses in Europe and the Far East. The Dow, S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite all closed yesterday’s session in the red, although the selling pressure has lacked any real degree of conviction so far. The flight to safe-haven assets pushed Bitcoin below the $90,000 threshold yesterday but there too the damage appears to be contained for now and cryptocurrencies are back in the green as of this morning. The selloff in the US Dollar is somewhat more convincing, pushing the DXY down to the mid-98 range. The real winner in all of this is of course gold. The precious metal has gone from strength to strength so far this week, breaching $4,700 for the first time on Tuesday, and fully maintaining its momentum during this morning’s session. The metal now sits above $4,860 per ounce and the question of the all-important $5k milestone is on everyone’s mind. Silver is asking its own questions after briefly venturing above $95 yesterday, but unfortunately the white metal was unwilling to provide any answers this morning, instead dipping back down below $94. Platinum and palladium remain on the front foot, although current flows firmly favour gold. Woes in the Japanese bond market deepened yesterday, with yields on thirty-year government bonds spiking to decade-highs. Yields have been climbing steadily for months, but after Japanese PM Sanae Takaichi called a snap election on Monday, investors are increasingly concerned about potential monetary stimulus down the line. The rise in bond yields is certainly more pronounced in Japan, but given the global nature of debt markets, the phenomenon is spreading to long-term US, UK and German bonds as well, which have all seen modest selloffs this week. Rising bond yields will lead to higher borrowing costs in general, to which world leaders are very sensitive. #Gold #Bond
Artificial Intelligence took the world by storm in 2025 and every company even remotely associated with the sector saw their stock price increase dramatically. Vocal supporters of AI, such as Palantir (PLTR) and Alphabet (GOOG), rose 135% and 65% respectively last year. The companies building the chips required to train and run AI models also shot up. Nvidia (NVDA), Broadcom (AVGO), Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSM), ASML Holding (ASML) and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) were all fantastic plays last year, and these companies are likely to remain in the spotlight for much of 2026 as well. Chip manufacturers are a major piece of the AI puzzle, but so too are the companies responsible for providing memory and data storage. Vast amounts of computing power need to be matched with vast amounts short- and long-term storage capacity. While deeply intertwined, chip fabrication and memory/storage manufacturing are separate businesses. Up until now, attentions have been firmly focused on the former. While Micron Technology (MU) absolutely smashed through the ceiling last year, gaining 240% in 2025, the company’s share price remains relatively down to earth compared to some of the price-to-earnings ratios seen in the wider technology sector. Although not as complex of an industry, memory can be just as much of a bottleneck to production as chip manufacturing. Just as with chipmakers, memory producers are a very small group of companies. Samsung, Hynix and Micron make up the vast majority of the market, with very little manufacturing capacity found outside of these big three. The bottlenecks do not stop there either. Chip manufacturing and memory are arguably the larger components, but the AI sector depends on far more. Data servers, cloud computing, cybersecurity and high-speed, high-bandwidth infrastructure all play their part, but so too do the end user applications, including IoT devices, automation and software. All the companies downstream of developments in artificial intelligence are likely to garner their fair share of investor attention at some stage. Just as market sentiment trickled down from gold, to silver, to other metals last year, the AI sector may well experience a similar process in 2026. Another crucial part of the Artificial Intelligence sector is the energy required to run it. The training of AI models is an extremely power-hungry activity that requires consistent and reliable sources of electricity. While oil and gas have traditionally provided much of the power used in heavy industry, modern tech companies are typically looking for something more on the green side. Wind and solar are all well and good, but do not meet the consistency requirement of data centres and server farms. Nuclear is the path forward, and the field is projected to see a sharp rebound in 2026. Meta Platforms (META) recently announced a 20-year agreement to buy nuclear power from Vistra (VST), while also committing to help the development of small modular reactors (SMRs) with Oklo (OKLO) and TerraPower. A collaboration between X-Energy, another SMR developer, and Amazon Web Services is being established. Digital infrastructure company Equinix (EQIX) is in partnership with Rolls-Royce SMR in an effort to pursue clean energy for its AI-driven data centres. The list goes on. After many years of stagnation and plant closures across the world, the nuclear industry is undergoing somewhat of a renaissance. The sector has traditionally relied on huge, state-funded plants that require decades of construction and commissioning. Many such plants are currently undergoing refits and upgrades, but in the short term, something more flexible is needed. Emerging sectors of technology need clean, reliable power, and they need it now. Small modular reactors mark a completely different approach to the matter. Production is intended to be streamlined and commercially viable, pushing out mass-produced individual components that can be assembled on site, as and when power requirements arise. Need more power? Add a second reactor, or even a third and fourth. Nuclear startup companies are springing up across the world, with largely aligned goals and design philosophies. The more complex an industry, the more complex its supply chains. Just as with the AI sector, the nuclear sector is heavily dependent on a huge number of sub-industries, all of which contribute to the larger picture. The most obvious to come to mind is probably the uranium mining industry, directly accessible via several ETFs. Enrichment and fuel assembly manufacturers come next. Reactor pressure vessels and steam generators both require advanced forging facilities – a relatively limited field. Turbines and electricity generating systems; electrical integration and substations; exotic materials for radiation-resistant components; civil engineering; software; waste management… The nuclear industry has a deep and diverse supply chain, each component of which is likely to benefit from renewed interest in the sector as a whole. If there is one word that could describe cryptocurrencies in 2025, it would be the word “disappointing”. Bitcoin may well have hit an all-time high in October of last year, but it is fair to say that most people were expecting a little more than what they got. Bitcoin topped out at around $69,000 in 2021, a target that would not even be doubled in the subsequent bull run, which saw peaks of around $125,000. BTC would end the year around 6% in the red, meaning it got outperformed by basically everything. A savings account would have been a better bet. Storing money under a mattress would have yielded better results. The wider crypto market fared even worse than Bitcoin did. The fact that such a performance occurred during a year where every major stock market and precious metal hit a record high, only adds insult to injury. Institutional interest was certainly present. ETFs saw huge inflows, strategic cryptocurrency reserves took off, and the regulation side of things was far more positive compared to previous years. And yet, the entire market felt boring, uneventful, subdued. Tamed, some might say. This is the problem with institutional money. The crypto sphere is starting to get the recognition it always craved. It should have been careful with what it wished for. If the GENIUS Act was a small step in the right direction, then the Clarity Act would have been a giant leap in comparison. A number of events were supposed to occur last year, but because of the government shutdown in the United States, they did not. The Clarity Act is not dead by any means, but like any major piece of legislation, it is at the mercy of powerful interests and partisanship. The bill would set the stage for what is acceptable and what is not, and under which regulatory body different practices would fall. This is essentially the green light for companies who have already built vast networks of decentralised financial infrastructure but are unable to flip the switch out of fear of legal action. A frustrating situation. The nonsensical hype is over, soon to be replaced by novel financial instruments that should be beneficial to all. Once the relevant legislation comes into effect, both in the US and globally, the flood gates will open, and cryptocurrencies may finally enter a new era.
Gold opened the Monday session with yet another gap to the upside this morning, in what is now becoming a regular move. The precious metal wasted no time pushing to highs of $4,690 per ounce within hours of the opening bell, setting yet another record high. Silver is also on the front foot this morning, reclaiming $93 per ounce and recovering nicely from the selloff that occurred at the end of last week. Greenland appears to be the setting for the latest drama, with President Trump threatening to impose tariffs on the European nations getting in the way of any potential deal involving the arctic nation. Platinum, palladium and other metals have not responded to the ongoing situation as of yet, remaining neutral so far morning. US and European stock futures alike are down in light of the new developments. Over in the digital world, Bitcoin sold off sharply early this morning, pushing prices down to $91,000 and successfully dousing the momentum painstakingly scrambled together over the course of last week. Inflation is the name of the game this week, with countries from around the world lining up to deliver their respective consumer price indices. The Eurozone and Canada will publish their latest figures later today, while the UK will follow on Wednesday. Thursday promises to be a busy day for the economic calendar, with the final revision of US GDP third quarter growth, followed by the delayed PCE price index for October and November, as well as personal spending and income for those two months. The PCE index would usually play a considerable part in steering the Fed’s decision-making process, but the data are several months out of date at this point, and markets are fully pricing in a rate hold during next week’s FOMC meeting. The Japanese government is set to release inflation figures on Friday, before the Bank of Japan delivers what is widely expected to be a rate hold on the Yen. Scheduled economic publications aside, events surrounding Greenland are likely to dominate market sentiment for a while, although ongoing developments in Iran are not to be overlooked either. #Gold #Silver #CPI
A margin call is probably the one notification no leveraged trader wants to see. It means your trading account no longer has enough available equity to support your open positions, and if nothing changes, your broker may begin closing trades automatically to limit further losses. I've been here, and it's not a nice situation to be in. A margin call is an early warning that your account is running out of breathing room. It isn't the same as having your positions closed immediately, but it's a clear signal that your margin level has fallen to a point where action is needed. In this guide, we'll explain exactly what a margin call is, how margin levels work, what causes one, how to respond if you receive one, and five practical ways to reduce the chances of it happening in the first place. A margin call is a notification from your broker telling you that the equity in your trading account has fallen below the required level to maintain your open positions. To restore the required margin, you'll usually need to deposit additional funds, reduce your position sizes, or close trades before your account reaches the stop-out level. Ready to put your trading knowledge into practice? A margin call is a warning from your broker that the equity in your trading account has fallen below the required level to support your open positions. Your trades are losing money, your available funds are shrinking, and your account no longer has enough margin to comfortably maintain those positions. The term "margin call" simply means your broker is asking you to take action before losses increase further. Depending on the broker, you may need to deposit additional funds, reduce the size of your positions, or close trades to restore your account's margin level. A margin call exists as an important risk-management safeguard. It helps protect both you and your broker from losses becoming larger than the available funds in your trading account. Rather than being a punishment, it's an early warning that your account is under increasing pressure. It's also important to understand that a margin call isn't the same as a stop-out. Receiving a margin call doesn't automatically mean your trades will be closed immediately. Instead, it's your opportunity to take control of the situation before the broker is forced to step in and begin closing positions automatically if losses continue to grow. This is why understanding how margin levels work is one of the most important parts of managing leveraged trades successfully. Read more:What Is Margin in Forex Trading and How to Use It? A margin call happens when your broker's Margin Level falls below a predetermined threshold. As the market moves against your open positions, your account equity falls, leaving less available margin to support your trades. Once your Margin Level drops to the broker's trigger point, you'll receive a margin call asking you to take action. To understand why this happens, it's worth becoming familiar with three simple terms that every leveraged trader should know. Core margin formulas Equity = Balance + Floating Profit/Loss Free Margin = Equity − Used Margin Margin Level = (Equity ÷ Used Margin) × 100% The process is actually quite straightforward: Although the mechanics are the same across most trading platforms, the exact trigger level varies from broker to broker. Some may issue a margin call when your Margin Level reaches 100%, while others may use 80%, 70% or even 50%, depending on the account type and trading conditions. The principle, however, never changes: once your account equity is no longer sufficient to comfortably support the margin required for your open positions, your broker will alert you that immediate action is needed. Understanding these relationships is one of the biggest steps towards becoming a more disciplined trader. I regularly keep an eye on my Margin Level during volatile market sessions — not because I expect a margin call, but because I'd much rather spot potential problems before my broker has to. Read more:What is leverage in forex and how much should you use? A margin call and a stop-out are two different stages of your broker's risk-management process. A margin call is an early warning that your account is approaching a dangerous level of risk, while a stop-out is the point at which the broker begins closing your positions automatically to prevent further losses. The important distinction is simple: In most cases, receiving a margin call still gives you an opportunity to act. You can add more funds to your account, reduce the size of your open positions, or close trades yourself before the broker is forced to intervene. It's worth remembering that these figures are only typical examples. Every broker sets its own margin-call and stop-out thresholds, and they can also vary between account types and financial instruments. That's why it's essential to understand the specific levels that apply to your own trading account before you place leveraged trades. Knowing where your warning level sits gives you valuable time to react before your broker has to make decisions on your behalf. Let's put the theory into practice with a simple example. Imagine you have a £2,500 trading account and open a EUR/USD position that requires £600 of used margin. At first, everything looks healthy. However, as the market moves against you, your floating losses begin to grow. Because those losses reduce your account equity, your Margin Level gradually falls. The figures below are purely hypothetical, but they show how a margin call can develop. At the start of the trade, your account has a comfortable margin buffer. Even if the market moves slightly against you, there's still plenty of equity available to absorb normal price fluctuations. As losses increase to £1,200, your equity drops to £1,300. Although the position is under pressure, your Margin Level is still above 200%, meaning the account remains relatively healthy. Once floating losses reach £1,900, however, your equity has fallen to £600 — exactly the amount of margin being used to support the position. The Margin Level is now 100%, which, for many brokers, is where a margin call may be triggered. Whenever I see my Margin Level heading towards a broker's warning threshold, I don't wait for the platform to make decisions for me. I'd much rather add funds if it fits my trading plan, or reduce the size of the position before a stop-out becomes a possibility. Acting early almost always leaves you with more options than reacting after the broker steps in. A margin call is usually the result of your account equity falling below your broker's required margin level. Although the forex market operates almost 24 hours a day and is generally one of the world's most liquid markets, prices can still move rapidly following major economic data, central bank announcements, shifts in market sentiment, or unexpected global events. As losses increase, your account equity falls and your Margin Level declines. Once that Margin Level reaches your broker's margin-call threshold, you'll receive a warning that action is needed. In reality, margin calls are rarely caused by a single event. More often, they're the result of several factors combining to put increasing pressure on your account. Large adverse price moves are one of the most common reasons traders receive a margin call. When the market moves sharply against your position, floating losses increase quickly, reducing your account equity. Because your Margin Level is calculated using your equity, every additional loss pushes that percentage lower. This is especially important when trading with high leverage, as relatively small market movements can have a much larger impact on your account than many new traders expect. High leverage allows traders to control larger positions using a relatively small amount of capital. While that can increase potential profits, it magnifies potential losses by exactly the same amount. The higher the leverage, the less room your account has to absorb adverse price movements before your Margin Level starts falling rapidly. A move that might be manageable on lower leverage could quickly trigger a margin call on a highly leveraged account. Free Margin is the portion of your account that remains available after your broker has reserved margin for your open positions — think of it as your financial safety cushion. When Free Margin is low, your account has very little capacity to absorb further losses. Even a relatively modest market movement can reduce your equity enough to push your Margin Level towards the margin-call threshold. Withdrawing money from your trading account while positions remain open can increase the likelihood of receiving a margin call. Every withdrawal reduces the amount of capital supporting your trades. If your open positions still require the same amount of used margin but your available equity has fallen, your Margin Level may decline more quickly if the market moves against you. During periods of increased market volatility, major economic announcements, or exceptional market conditions, some brokers may temporarily increase their margin requirements. If that happens, the amount of margin needed to maintain your existing positions increases. Even if the size of your trade hasn't changed, your Margin Level can fall because more capital is now required to support it. That's why it's sensible to keep an eye on broker announcements around major events such as central bank interest rate decisions. Markets don't always move smoothly from one price to the next. Around major news releases, geopolitical events, or when markets reopen after a weekend, prices can jump from one level to another without trading every price in between — this is known as a market gap. When gaps occur against your position, floating losses can increase almost instantly. In extreme cases, the market can move straight from a healthy Margin Level to a stop-out with very little warning. Receiving a margin call doesn't necessarily mean your positions will be closed immediately. It does, however, mean your account's safety buffer has been significantly reduced. If the market continues moving against your trades, your account could soon reach the broker's stop-out level, where positions may be closed automatically. The key is not to panic. Instead, assess your account quickly and decide on the most appropriate course of action based on your trading plan and risk tolerance. Depositing extra money into your trading account immediately increases your equity and improves your Margin Level, creating a larger buffer between your account and the broker's stop-out threshold. That said, adding funds should only be considered if the original trade still fits your trading strategy. Throwing more money at a losing position simply because you don't want to close it is rarely a good long-term habit. Reducing the size of your open trades lowers the amount of margin being used and can help improve your Margin Level. Sometimes the best trading decision is simply accepting a manageable loss before it becomes a much larger one. Closing part of a position may also reduce your overall exposure while still allowing you to participate if the market eventually turns in your favour. In some situations, traders choose to both deposit additional funds and reduce part of their position size. This increases available equity while simultaneously lowering the amount of margin tied up in open trades. It can provide a healthier balance between preserving capital and maintaining market exposure — although every decision should still be based on a well-defined trading plan rather than emotion. A margin call can never be ruled out completely, especially when trading leveraged products. However, sensible risk management and good margin planning can dramatically reduce the chances of receiving one. The goal isn't simply to avoid margin calls — it's to build a trading approach that gives your account enough room to handle normal market volatility. Here are five practical ways to stay on the right side of your broker's margin requirements. A cash buffer is simply extra capital that isn't tied up in open positions. It acts as a safety cushion, allowing your account to absorb normal market fluctuations without your Margin Level falling dangerously low. Many new traders use almost all of their available margin because they can. Experienced traders tend to do the opposite — they deliberately leave spare funds available so they're not constantly trading on the edge. Position sizing means choosing the size of each trade based on your account balance, your acceptable level of risk and where your stop-loss is placed — not simply opening the same lot size every time. By keeping each trade proportionate to your overall capital, a single losing position is far less likely to have a significant impact on your equity or Margin Level. Many experienced traders choose to risk around 1–2% of their account on any single trade. Read more:Long vs Short Position Compared: How to Trade Each Like a Pro Lower leverage generally means lower margin-call risk. Although higher leverage lets you control larger positions with less capital, it also makes your account far more sensitive to relatively small market movements. I've always found it helps to think of leverage as a power tool: used carefully, it's incredibly useful; used carelessly, it can do a lot of damage surprisingly quickly. A stop-loss order is one of the simplest tools for limiting trading risk. By automatically closing a position once it reaches a predetermined price, it helps prevent small losses from turning into much larger ones. No stop-loss can guarantee a perfect exit in every situation — during extreme volatility or market gaps, the execution price may differ from your stop price due to slippage — but sensible stop-losses remain one of the most effective ways to protect your account. Read more:What is a stop-loss order and how to set it Successful traders don't just watch price charts; they also keep an eye on the health of their trading account. Regularly checking your Margin Level, Equity and Free Margin helps you spot potential problems before they become urgent. Personally, I treat my Margin Level like the fuel gauge in a car: you don't wait until the engine stops before looking for a petrol station, and the same logic applies to managing your trading capital. Read more:What is slippage and how to avoid it in trading Ignoring a margin call rarely makes the problem go away. If the market continues moving against your positions, your account can quickly reach the broker's stop-out level, where action is taken automatically. Understanding the potential consequences helps you appreciate why responding promptly matters so much. The good news is that most margin calls are avoidable. By managing position sizes sensibly, using appropriate leverage and regularly monitoring your Margin Level, you can significantly reduce the chances of ever reaching the point where your broker has to intervene. A margin call is a warning from your broker that the equity in your trading account has fallen too low to support your open positions. To restore the required margin, you'll usually need to add funds, reduce your positions, or close trades before your account reaches the stop-out level. A margin call could occur when a trader with a £2,500 account opens a leveraged position requiring £600 of margin. If floating losses reduce the account equity to £600, the Margin Level falls to 100%, prompting the broker to issue a margin call and request action to restore the account. Yes. If you don't respond to a margin call, your broker may begin closing your positions automatically. During volatile markets, this can happen quickly and may result in larger realised losses or less favourable exit prices. If you're unable to add funds or reduce your positions, your account may eventually reach the broker's stop-out level. At that point, the broker will usually begin closing open trades automatically to limit further losses. The answer depends on the type of trading. In traditional stock margin accounts, traders may sometimes have two to five business days to meet a margin call. In leveraged forex and CFD trading, however, a stop-out can follow almost immediately once the required margin level is breached, so it's best to treat a margin call as an urgent warning. No. Margin Call is a 2011 financial drama inspired by events during the global financial crisis. This guide refers to the trading term margin call, which is the warning a broker issues when your account no longer has sufficient equity to support its open leveraged positions. A margin call is your trading account's early warning that losses have reduced your available margin to a level where action is needed. While receiving one doesn't automatically mean your positions will be closed, it does mean your margin buffer has become dangerously thin, and delaying action could lead to a stop-out. The best response is to act quickly — whether that's adding funds, reducing your exposure or closing positions yourself before the broker is forced to intervene. More importantly, aim to prevent margin calls altogether by maintaining a healthy cash buffer, using sensible position sizing, choosing appropriate leverage and protecting every trade with a well-planned stop-loss. After more than 15 years of trading, one lesson has stayed with me: successful traders aren't the ones who never lose money — they're the ones who manage risk before it manages them. My best advice is to avoid a margin call altogether, but you learn from your mistakes, especially in trading. Being prepared for a margin call and knowing what to do is always worth it.

The US Senate Banking Committee had been scheduled to discuss the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act on Thursday, but after strong opposing comments from Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong, such discussions have been delayed. According to senator Tim Scott, chairman of the Banking Committee, the delay is temporary and “everyone remains at the table working in good faith”. Coinbase may well have pulled support for the bill, but Armstrong remains optimistic that the right outcome can still be achieved. For Coinbase, the main sticking point is the bill’s prohibition on stablecoin rewards. This point is seen as a way of protecting the traditional banking sector, which is unable to match the yield on deposits found in DeFi protocols and on crypto exchanges. For many, should the bill pass in its current form, the cryptocurrency industry would be in no better position than it currently stands, making the status quo preferable to adopting any new legislation. Coinbase (COIN) fell 6.5% on Thursday following their rejection of the bill, while Circle (CRCL), which issues and operates USDC, slipped almost 10% during yesterday’s session. For one reason or another, cryptocurrencies themselves were relatively unfazed, with Bitcoin remaining above $95,000. It has been a volatile few days for silver, which notched a record high of $93 per ounce on Wednesday before printing a confusing wick during yesterday’s session which saw lows of $86. Precious metals in general are undergoing a degree of selling pressure this morning, pushing silver below $90 per ounce, while gold, platinum and palladium are all in the red so far today. The main event for yesterday’s drama concerned the debate surrounding tariffs and whether or not such would be applied to the import of precious metals. The US government confirmed yesterday that tariffs would not be applied to mineral imports, and in fact raised the possibility of price floors for critical materials instead. #Crypto #Silver #Coinbase
The question on every trader’s mind at the end of 2025 was whether the rise in silver had met its end. Two weeks into 2026 and the answer is a resounding “no”. Silver is now officially above $90 per ounce as of this morning, rising 12% so far this week, and has gained 25% since the start of the year. Gold also broke back into record high territory this morning, pushing past yesterday’s peak of $4,634 per ounce, but the spotlight is mostly on silver for the time being. Platinum and palladium are once again bringing up the rear, not forgotten but overlooked so far today. The rise in precious metals is all the more impressive given the recent rebalancing of commodity indices, which should have added selling pressure to gold and silver. The fact that both metals not only absorbed the resulting pressure, but convincingly appreciated during the adjustment window, speaks volumes about current market sentiment. The rebalancing period ends tomorrow. Cryptocurrencies displayed a rare show of strength last night, which saw Bitcoin reclaim $95,000 per coin and hit highs not seen since last November. The broader crypto markets rose in unison, with many major coins gaining 7% or more over the day. The driving force behind the move was the purchase of 13,627 Bitcoin by Michael Saylor’s Strategy (MSTR), for a total of $1.25 billion. The acquisition is one of the largest in months and has helped to quell some of the doubts that arose after the company slowed down its Bitcoin purchases in recent times. Tensions between the US and Iran have worsened over the last couple of days, leading to rise in the price of crude oil. Brent Crude futures have now topped $65 per barrel, while the WTI index is in the high $60 range. The spread between the two benchmarks has widened over the last few weeks, in part because of the expected oil flows from Venezuela to the US, but also because of the potential disruptions to Middle Eastern crude exports. Seaborne crude oil is nearing a $5 premium compared to the American index, which is certainly on the higher end, although by no means unheard of. #Silver #Bitcoin #CrudeOil
