Hedging Forex currency pairs do not require any margins though, hedged CFD positions require only once with XM.

For example:

If you hedge positions with:

• 1 lot buy DAX30
• 1 lot sell DAX30

The margin required is 1 lot for DAX30.

If you are not sure about these calculations, you are recommended to open a Demo account for free to see how the numbers move.
