I later took a forex lecture about margin and so i requested them to return my $10 plus $10 supposed profit on second day ,or just $10 to simplify the issue. Can anyone help me get back my money?
Dear Customer!
First and foremost we are grateful to you that you have raised the issue with our Customer Support first.
Though, it seems that, this case should be clarified here too.
We would like to inform you, that we have thoroughly considered your claim and checked the bespoken orders (all AUDUSD), consulted with the server data, checked its log-files for several times and come to the following conclusion.
To begin with, we would like to draw your attention to the fact that you can check all the changes of the order in the log files of your MetaTrader4.
To do so, please, click on Journal in your MT4 trading platform -

First of all, considering your mentioning that FBS has asked you to deposit to maintain your margin level, we would like to specify, that this e-mail message is automatically sent by the server as soon as client’s margin level becomes lower than the critical level.
Please, kindly let us remind you, that according to the Customer Agreement:
3.6.2. The Company is entitled to mandatory closing of Client open positions without prior notification of the latter one, if a Margin level is lower than 20% of the necessary margin for maintaining open positions.
This is exactly why our Company sends such e-mails: so that a client could prevent at least some of his/her orders from being closed automatically. Though, depositing is not obligatory, of course. As in your case, you have decided not to maintain your margin level and, consequently, on 20.09.2017, all of your orders were closed by Stop Out, unfortunately.
After your orders were closed your balance has become 1.53$ (profit (-8.24$), swap (-0.3$), cashback commission (1.07$) and initial deposit (9$) are calculated).
According to the Trader’s Calculator, which you may find on our site (
https://fbs.com.mm/trading/traders-calculator) in order to open AUDUSD order on Micro account with 0.01 lot size and 1:1000 leverage, you need 0.77$ margin. So, you had enough funds for #1352983556 order opening. In the logs of your account you may see, that the order has been opened from the same IP address that the previous orders were opened from, i.e. the order has been opened from your side.
Also, according to your log files on 21.09.2017 you have placed sell limit order #1352985529 at 17:46:01. This order has been placed from the same IP address as the previous ones too. The log record is following:
2017.09.21 17:46:01.427 '3637714': order #1352985529, sell limit 0.01 AUDUSDm at 0.79300
Though you had 0.76$ margin left, since by 18:15 your #1352983556 order has gained profit 1.03$, as soon as the price reached 0.79300 level, your order has been opened (on 21.09.2017 at 18:15:28). At the moment of order opening your margin was 1.79$.
The log record of the order opening is following:
2017.09.21 18:15:28.216 '3637714': order #1352985529, sell 0.01 AUDUSDm is opened at 0.79300
Since you have set Stop Loss level for #1352985529 order, this order has been closed on 21.09.2017 at 18:17:49 at the price 0.79345 by Stop Loss. The log records are following:
2017.09.21 17:46:01.427 '784': confirm '3637714' sell limit 0.01 AUDUSDm at 0.79300 sl: 0.79345 tp: 0.00000
2017.09.21 18:17:49.186 '3637714': order #1352985529 closed by API
After #1352985529 order closure your balance became 1,08$.
On 21.09.2017 at 22:40:22 you have requested #1353032195 order opening from the same IP address as the previous ones (please, kindly let me repeat that you can check it in your log files). The log record is following:
2017.09.21 22:40:22.559 '3637714': order #1353032195, sell 0.01 AUDUSDm at 0.79304
Since the profit of the #1352983556 order by 22:40:22 amounted 0.51$, the free margin before #1353032195 order opening was 0.82$.
Thus, as you can see, you had enough funds for all three orders opened on 21.09.2017.
Unfortunately, on 26.10.2017 price movement in an unfavorable direction also caused your account balance to reach Stop Out level, that is why, the system closed remained two orders automatically one-by-one in order to prevent your account balance from going negative.
We hope that we have managed to explain you this situation and wish you profitable trading.
