Automated Plus500 Margin Close-Out Alerts
Every 30 minutes during market hours, WebRun opens Plus500, reads your account equity, used margin, and current margin level, and the moment it drops within the safety margin you set above the close-out level, sends you a Telegram message and a backup text naming the current margin level and which position is using the most margin.
How do I get alerted before Plus500 nears a margin close-out?
WebRun checks your Plus500 account margin level every 30 minutes during market hours, and the moment it drops within the safety buffer you set above the close-out level, sends a Telegram message and a backup text naming the current level and the position using the most margin. Managing the position stays entirely your call, WebRun only gives the early warning.
- A margin close-out risk is flagged 30 minutes at a time, not discovered after the fact
- The alert threshold matches your own risk tolerance, not a generic default
- Two channels back each other up so a critical alert is less likely to be missed

Questions, answered
Will WebRun close a position or add funds to avoid a close-out?
No. WebRun only reads your margin level and alerts you. It never places, closes, or modifies a position, and it never adds funds to your account. Managing the position is always your decision.
How is the alert threshold set?
You choose how much buffer above the actual close-out level should trigger an alert when you turn the template on, so it matches your own risk tolerance.
Why send both Telegram and a text?
Margin alerts are time-sensitive, so the text backs up Telegram in case a notification is missed, giving you two chances to see it before it becomes urgent.
