  5. I went way bigger that expected. I thought it was the trade of a lifetime, not this nightmare

    A large proportion of the mark is aberration, but it won't matter if/when they liquidate. Nobody wants a 150 lot to go to mkt in Cotton. Legit there is no way this trade goes debit more than a $150K figure. I think you'll be OK when it settles down. Clearly IBKR isn't concerned or you would have received a message/call. I would work a limit order at your entry tomorrow. See if it impacts marks (Copenhagen Interpretation lol).

    Hopefully you'll be fine.

    Breath for now, nothing happened yet for you to compromise your own health.

  10. Thanks for your concerns guys, really appreciate. Feeling like shit, barely the strengh to watch my screen. My account is a wreck, down around 400K€. Still no liquidation from CapTrader. I'm so affraid. I don't what to do. I don't have this type of money. I thought I was protected by the way they calculate your margin / position. I could never imagine that they would let my account go so negative
