My broker's margin call came at 3am and wiped out my $2,300 position
Last Tuesday I got a margin call notification at 3am from my futures broker. I had a natural gas contract go against me and their system auto-liquidated before I even woke up. The email said my account fell below the maintenance threshold. I lost $2,300 plus they charged me a $35 forced liquidation fee. Has anyone fought a broker over timing on margin calls, or is that just how everyone's day goes?

idk man, $2300 sounds like the cost of doing business with futures, not a lawsuit.
