Hi @bielded-aerobee-2, thank you for joining the community!

If your balance is 20 USD on a Financial account under St Vincent and Grenadines/British Virgin Islands jurisdiction and no other trades open, you may place an order of 0.2 lot.

You may refer to [this article](https://community.deriv.com/t/margin-calculator-for-specific-assets/31789) on how to calculate the margin for placing a trade or contact us via Live Chat on the matter.
