Margin
The collateral your broker sets aside for an open position.
Margin = position size / leverage. At 1:30, a 1 lot EURUSD position needs ~$3,611 margin. Floating losses eat equity; when usable equity drops below required margin, you get a margin call. Below stop-out, positions are force-closed starting with the biggest loser.
