  • No Large-Scale Liquidation in Margin Trading, Brokers Respond

    This afternoon, rumors circulated on social media about concentrated liquidations in margin trading accounts and mass forced liquidations by brokers, raising concerns among investors. Interviews revealed a significant discrepancy between the actual market situation and the panic rumors online. Brokers interviewed clearly stated that the overall risk of margin trading is currently manageable, and there is no large-scale forced liquidation occurring.

Investors should rationally assess fragmented online narratives and pay attention to maintaining the collateral ratio of their credit accounts, leaving a safety margin.
