How to Read
Falling means forced-selling pressure is rising; rebounding means it is easing.
- This page estimates from TWSE-listed margin data only, excluding OTC, so its level differs from the exchange's official account-level maintenance ratio, though the trends can be compared.
- The exchange suspended its daily official figure from 2026/07/29; this page's estimate keeps updating daily.

Caveat
130% is the margin-call threshold for individual accounts; the market-wide figure nearing it doesn't mean the whole market is being force-sold.
