C. $50,000
Explanation:
These are options for the question;
maintenance margin requirement is:
A. 0
B. $25,000
C. $50,000
D. $100,000
From the question, we were told that a pattern day trading account has a high market value during the day of $200,000 and has a "0" position at the end of the day.
There is a standard of minimum margin rule by FINRA for market value and this minimum margin is either the same or more than 25% , or more than a value of $25,000,
But we are given a high market value of $200,000 thenThen the minimum maintenance margin requirement is:"
$200,000 x 25%
= $200,000×(25/100)
= $50,000
